Thanks ladies....we went for results yesterday and found out it is both hormone and her2 negative,,,so I am assuming it is triple negative....as that's the only other one I can find if no oestrogen and her2 receptive. Reading about this is worrying....as apparently the TNBC has more chance of metastising and of reoccurring within the first few years after chemo!? Also, although the bloods came back fine, I am worried that the cancer may have spread elsewhere in her body. When I asked how we could know this, the nurse just told me that they do not do cancer finding blood tests, and the only way of knowing would be symptomatic problems:( so as it stands, we don know if it's travelled elsewhere, she has an aggressive tumour and she is not being operated on u til feb 20th!! Very worrying. They said they will take the sentinel node out first, check that, and if there is any sign of cancer in the sentiment el node then they will take further lymph nodes out.....I just wish the next three weeks would hurry up and get this over with. It's a living nightmare. I've also started to get pain in my right breast, like a needle being pushed Into the side of the breast. It eased up when I had a hot bath before but it's nagging again now:( I keep rubbing the bread to ease the pain away. No lump. Just a needle like pain. ..... Could this be stress caused by the worry!?? Scared....
