I have recently had breast surgery and was told it has not spread to lymph nodes and they had got it all. Confirmed stage 2, grade 3 triple negative. They now want me to consider aggressive chemo treatment before radiotherapy but after stating that I am high risk of serious heath issues due to my autoimmune conditions and the fact that I recently completed chemotherapy for Ovarian cancer. Has anyone been in this difficult position as to whether to risk chemo or decided not to? I have been told that this should reduce my further risk by 8%. Thank you
