Hi lovely ladies,

Im looking for experts in TNBC, im already based outside of the US so location is not an issue. Can be at any institute anywhere.

Also did anyone face this? Multiple recurrences at 31 even after umx?

Dear Passant,

I am not a lovely lady but am responding to your request at the suggestion of a friend on this marvelous site. I am a Patient Advocate and have helped many hundreds of women from this site over the last 10+ years.

I will send you a PM with my phone number and will try to help, if I can, but need to talk with you. There will be no cost.

Also, I am not a medical professional so I will never tell you what treatment plan you should embark upon but I can suggest several Breast Medical Oncologists who are familiar with TNBC.

warmly,

Steve

Steve is our angels . He helped me find several doctors for 2nd opinions. I love him and recommend him to anyone who needs help. 

Thank you Steve for arranging me meeting dr. Valero.

Steve is a huge reason I survived a recurrence 7 years after my first go round. He got me into MD Anderson months quicker than I could myself. If I could do one thing for you and one thing only I would get you to MD Anderson - it will change your life!

Hello,

I know this post was many months ago, but wanted to reach out to try and connect with Steve.  I did send him a private message.  I didn't know if he was still helping in this area on not.  I am looking for a second opinion-it's kind of complicated.  I live in Virginia.  Thanks.

Hi Donna,

I haven't heard from him yet, but I just sent an email yesterday.  I have reached out to a couple of places in the last few days also-University of Chicago and MD Anderson.
