Hi! I'm new to the forum and trying to find people with advice or in a similar situation as me. Im a 35 year old mom diagnosed with Triple Neg BC at 32. I've done AC+T surgery, radiation. Gem/carbo, Xeloda, two trials at UCLA and am now on Halavan. The Halaven is working but not really shrinking things if you know what I mean. I'm searching ideas for my next treatment. My Dr says chemo epirubicin/cytoxan. I said no lol. I have cancer in several lymph nodes, breast and abdominal tissue no organs at this time. I really don't want to do the harsh chemos when I'm trying to stay healthy as possible. I'm struggling with my possitive attitude and am feeling defeated. Could use some advice/suggestions hear stories. Also if anyone has any nephrostomy tube experiences I'm all ears! Thank you !!

    Hi My_TN_Life and welcome to Breastcancer.org!

    You may find it helpful to post on the Calling all TNs thread, where many members discuss their treatments for triple negative disease -- someone may be able to share the chemo that has worked for them.

    We hope this helps and we look forward to hearing more from you soon!
