I had triple negative breast cancer stage 1 grade III and was diagnosed with BRCA2 gene. I did regular 4 rounds of chemo and another 4 rounds of a different chemo because they put me in a study. I did first a lumpectomy then chemo. About 6 months later after the last chemo I opted for a double mastectomy and ovaries removal. I was 41 still here and I am now 60 cancer free (probably should knock on wood!!)

My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer at 83 years old. After surgery I asked her surgeon why so many women suffer from this horrific disease. His opinion were hormone intake at the start of menopause. Interesting information if true.

Best and most understandable explanation of the difference between the subtypes of breast cancer!!

my mom was diagnosed with stage 1 triple negative breast cancer at age 48, and she died at age 49. her cancer spread through her lymph nodes and into her lungs. 3 weeks before this, her oncologist said she was in remission and that he has never had a patient with her diagnosis (early stage TNBC) lose their life. well, it turns out she was never in remission, and i’m sure he still tells his patients that same lie to this day. btw, this doctor is a big-shot oncologist at cedars-sinai. he wouldn’t even take health insurance. my parents paid out of pocket thinking that she would get the best care, but this big medical establishments and well-known doctors do NOT care about their individual patients. my mom would probably be alive today if he listened to her (there’s a lot more context to this that i’m not gonna share in a youtube comment because it’s too long). never trust what these money-hungry doctors say!!

I have TNBS and it keeps returning after chemo. I’m on my 3rd bout. I use the VA for my healthcare and they are SLOW. I found it again January 2024 and it’s now July 2024 and still waiting for treatment. I think they are trying to kill me.
