I was just wondering if anyone on this board has been diagnosed a second time w/bc and triple neg?
 
I was originally dx in 12/02 w/ IDC, triple neg and again this last Feb. 07 also triple neg on the other side which was called a new primary.  This time I went w/a double mastectomy.

Hi Pam-

Yes, both my initial dx in 9/04 (invasive on left, DCIS on right, clear SNB) and recurr and liver mets dx in 12/05 were trip neg. 

I had bi-lat lump's and rad'tn on the initial dx.  On the recurr and mets dx, they left the breast tumor in as a marker.   I've been NED for almost a year! Due to discovering I'm BRCA1 (with all those additional risks), I'm considering a bi-lat mast, recon and later, an ooph

Thanks Lorraine and Calgal for responding.  Calgal I should have remembered your situation, shame on me.
 
I was just curious as I had thought we triples had a tendency for distant mets and I was surprised to have it appear on the other side.  Confused
 
I'm so glad you are both doing so well.
