Chelee, thanks for checking in on me. Unfortunately the third pathologist determined it was cancer but it doesn't look like breast cancer under the slide. Weird and of course it is not showing any receptors, so triple negative. Since I have a history of breast cancer they are assuming it is bc and not a second cancer.

I am trying to get into a parp inhibitor trial at UCSF. I didn't realize that there was a lottery to get in so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
