Hi, I was recently diagosed with a triple neg stage 3 cancer. Successfully removed with clear margins, but pathology showed, particularly aggressive.

This is the first time I've posted anything but I don't know who else to turn to.

I had a lumpectomy doctor said I needed a second surgery had the surgery no more nodes were positive I was very upside I healed well after 1 one the second one with drains really did my head in, finished my first chemo I am very tired hope chemo will get better
just finished 5 weeks of radiation therapy, i didnt do chemo , they said because there were clear margins, no nodes effected and it was a stage 1 early that i didnt need it ??? did anyone out there get radiation without chemo??
