everyone,

I have been lurking the forum for a little while. I bumped into it while searching online about my diagnosis. It is hard to find out that you have cancer, let alone to know that you have the most aggressive form. I was diagnosed a week before thanksgiving 2019. A 3cm tumor was removed, triple negative ,no limph nodes involved KI67 20%. I received 4 a/c every three weeks and now I am on taxol weekly .My oncologist never mentioned anything about dose dense. She is a great doctor, but she hasn’t had many triple negative patients. If someone could recommend a triple negative expert I live in San Diego C.A. I will like to see one once I am done with my treatment. I feel that the more I learnt about this disease, the more I think I could have made a different decision. I don’t Know everything happened
