Metaplastic TNBC , Effectiveness of Chemo
Hi all, I was diagnosed with metaplastic TNBC in August 2025, luckily it was caught at an early stage (1B) . I have had 5 months of neoadjuvant AC & Paclitaxol and Carboplatin. I had an ultrasound this morning and there is minimal shrinkage (2mm). Has anyone else had minimal change but received a residual cancer burden of 0 post op? I am trying to stay upbeat and positive. Seeing the surgeon on Thursday for surgical planning. Regards Oplivelong90Views0likes3CommentsChemo treatment
Start chemo next week. Diagnosed TNBC, surgery/nodes all came back clear. Doing chemo then radiation to make sure no microscopic cells will come back later on. Chemo using is docetaxel and cyclophosphamide and two days later injection of pegfilgrastim(boost immune system) after each treatment, once every three weeks for twelve weeks Wondering if anyone has had similar treatment, if so what side effects they had and how did they manage while being treated and any good things to help me go through it to make it more manageable. Have had radiation before ten yrs ago for HER2-, chemo is all new to me. TIA130Views0likes1Comment
