Hello Gals!!!
This topic is about the conference being held this weekend, November 17 & 18) here in Houston at MD Anderson Cancer Center ( www.mbcnetwork.org).
I know that some of you have interest in going--it would be nice to meet all of you (Pinehouse, Texasgirl, Lani and CalGal)...and any others who would like to join us!!!
I would like to begin this topic with encouraging any of you who would like for us to ask questions of concern. So please include any questions you may have and I will write them up and take it to the conference....and us girls will take over!! I can be a little shy but I know I will be well accompanied .
Thanks...and we will keep you posted with what we have learned.

Hi Liliana,
Thank you for the offer. I will take you up on it. I have been a little down since my dx....brain mets are scary but so are lung mets. And in my case it looks like a lymphangitic spread. Just curious what chemo is recommended for us triple neg. with this type of involvement. Any info you could get will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Oana
