What is Basal-type Breast Cancer?

Thanks Tanya again for your wonderful advice and suggestions.  I will be seeking a referral to another surgeon tomorrow for second opinion and ongoing care in this respect from here forward.

I am hoping that another member to this site may have been diagnosed or previously diagnosed with my particular cancer whom may be able to shed some light - I'll wait and see.  My breast health care nurse calls me "special" - as a result of my cancer type being rare.

Thanks for the positive feedback regarding your friends who have had triple negative cancers and the effectiveness of chemo.  This type of information is invaluable to me at present.  Still not looking forward to chemo all the same.

It has been a pleasure to meet with you as well.  Stay healthy, live life to the fullest and keep in touch.

Your advice has been very much appreciated.
