Just finished my 4th and last dd of AC today. I will start taxol in 2 weeks with 12 weeks scheduled. I have triple neg invasive fuctal carcinoma. I have not had surgery yet. Doc is recommending a double mastectomy. Its been a whirlwind to say the least. Many many tears. Never thought it would be me. Go for my yearlys..never miss....and they find cancer in both breasts. No family history either.......I'm trying to be positive but when you feel like crap its pretty hard.........Has anyone started a 12 week course of tackle and how are you feeling on it?

    I was also diagnosed with triple negative bc.  I had bmx before starting chemo. Mine was stage 1, grade 2. My chemo was taxotere and cytoxan. I have been really lucky and not had much in the way of side effects. I have my 4th and last treatment tomorrow. Hope my luck holds out with the last one! Hope you are another lucky one.
