Anyone else have this charming combo? I was told it's a rare mix. So far I know of two other women on another board with it. Was just wondering if there's anyone else and what you're doing for treatment (I'm too lazy to "search").

Penny,

There was a thread about ER- PR- Her2+, but didn't specify BRCA genes:

Here's a link from NIH about the BRCA genes:

You can find other Er- Pr- members on the 'Calling all Stage IV Sisters' thread:
