good afternoon,
I got told yesterday that i have triple negative breast cancer or invasive ductual carcinoma grade 3. Waiting for a CT scan monday to see if its spread anywhere else. Im BRCA1 positive which was only diagnosed before xmas and wasnt expecting this so quickly :(
It appears the doctors have been debating the best cause of treatment and have given me the following options.
Chemo then a double masectomy
lumpectomy and then chemo
Masectomy and then chemo.
I was considering a preventative double masectomy after being diagnosed with BRCA. Just wondering what others have been through with the same condition. Unfortunately one of my lymph nodes also tested positive from the biposy. I am very scared of the cancer spreading so leaning more towards chemo first. You are all very supportive and wonderful. THank you.
