The information on the Internet is grim. My advice is to NOT read anything that is over 2 or 3 years old. Major strides have been made in the last 3-4 years on treating TNBC. If we had to be diagnosed with TNBC, 2008 is much better than 2000. <BR/><BR/>Not sure if you have had a chance to read everything on the TNBC forum - but has your surgeon talked to you about having a Power Port for chemo? Not sure when you 2nd surgery is, but if it hasn't occurred, the port can be installed at the same time.<BR/><BR/>It is a scary time you are in right now. From one who has been where you are, it does get better. And you get to breathe again!<BR/><BR/>~ReneeReneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06827641133321770183noreply@blogger.com
