    I have always been a strong health six foot athletic lady with no smoking, dinking or social drug background. My history is only known for my mothers side of the family when has a history of heart attacks. In less than thirty days of taking an x-ray I found a lump and was diag. with satge three breast cancer. After chemo/TAC and radiation I am not the same person physically or mentally. I am embrassed with my abnormal physical looks of: lymphodema-arm, thin-hair, weak-finger nails, dark-eyes, poor vision, sesative-skin , tired all the time, poor memory, pain constantly, hygiene issues (no matter what I do), nausea, etc.

    I am a florida lady that has found nothing on research for HER2/Neg

    You can not take any type hormones but Can someone tell how and what is on the market to help fight this type of Breast Cancer?

    Hi VeBanks,

    Ok, I just want to be sure that you were told you are er/pr/her2neu negative?  Otherwise known as triple negative.  

    If that is the case, then no, there isn't any sort of after care for us.  

    That can be scary, I know. 

    However, the good news is that trip. negative people do fantastic on chemo.  I had pre-op chemo, and had an over 99% reduction in the tumor (which was 7-10 cm....unknown the exact measurement because my tumor went back to my chest wall). 

    We are still waiting, patiently to see when something comes out to help us after we finish chemo.  

    Welcome to the boards, and please come back often.  This is a great place.  
    Love and prayers, Deb
