I have completed 35 rounds of radiation after being diagnosed on Aug. 3, 2012 with ILC, ductal in situ and lobular in situ.

I just found out yesterday that ILC that is Triple Positive is very rare. Which is depressing.

After a battery of more sophisticated tests, my team determined that chemo and herceptin risks outweighed the benefits based on the size of my tumor--less than 1 cm--and the FISH, oncotype and mammaprint.

Any other Triple Positive ILC ladies out there? I've found three so far in the US and Australia.
