Re: Triple Positive

Konagirl, thanks for sharing your story. Yours is so similiar to mine. I was dx stage IIA, grade 3 and Her2++ in Sept 2015. Like you, I did chemo 1st (neoadjuvant). Tho I did 5 out of 6 rounds every 3 weeks. I wonder why yours was different with weekly chemo. Not heard of this treatment regiment for triple positive. I did lumpectomy and got clear margins and clean nodes too. I'm still waiting on more hair to grow but it's now just long enough that I no longer wear a ball cap in public. I was way too sick to do anything during chemo. I don't know how you did it. Do you still have your port in? If not, when did you have it removed? I ask, as my onc wants me to keep it in for 2 more years and I"m wrestling with this. Also, how old are you? I'm 55, thanks
