Triple Negative Breast cancer

Less than one minute read time.

Is there anybody out there who has been diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer.  This is my diagnosis and I have seen two oncologists, one for chemo and one for radiotherapy.  The second oncologist thinks I could benefit from Tamoxifin but the first said it wouldn't be of any help to me.  There isn't much known about the best treatment for this condition so it would be helpful if anybody else has this diagnosis and what their treatment options have been.

    Sorry to hear about your diagnosis.

    My mum had triple neg and as far as I was aware was not offered Tamoxifen as I thought this was for oestrogen-positive breast cancer, though certainly worth following up if someone has suggested it. If you search for triple negative on this site, there are many other threads with people who have it which may help you.  Have you also seen www.tnbcfoundation.org which is helpful. x
