Hi Tasha2010
While it's completely up to you whether you have chemo or not I would think long and hard about it as chemo is our only line of defence against Triple Negative breast cancer. While I won't say chemo is easy it is doable. You will be given medications to help counteract any side effects that you way have. You could give chemo a try and if you find it too much for you you could ask them to stop giving it to you..
Wishing you the best of luck with everything whatever you decide to do.
Best wishes
