Hello Alison41,
You were refer to me by one of the member of this forum, as being based in UK. I am also based in UK, but not leave here on permanent basis, just moved here for the treatment. Could you please write to me. I've been dx with Stage II TNBC IDC Grade 3, right breast two tumors (add up 3.1 cm) and affected lymph nodes. I started chemo prior to surgery (surgeon recommended lumpectomy after chemo). The Chemo I am having is 4xAC plus 4x Taxol once every two weeks, for total of 4 months (two months of AC and two months of Taxol). I have heard about complementary treatments such as Carboplatin or Avastin. My oncolog here seems confident and did not add anything to the high above. I havent yet been tested for BRCA but scheduled for one, I am very scared, need some advice. I did already 2x AC and tomorrow having the third one. Please contact me.
Laura
