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
