As I look on the sites they are alot more ER+Pr- than I thought.  I am DN bc neg HER.  What dose this mean for my prognosis? AM I considered more like TN except that I am being treated with AL's.  I don't know much about that PR- factor.  Any advice appreciated.  Thanks

    You are consider hormone positive even though your PR is negative. Triple positives can't get Al's. This gives you a better prognosis than being triple negative because they can use Al's as another gun to treat you.
