Re: More than 1 type Triple Neg & Her2+++
Hey Shelia,
I had one tumor that was triple positive and a DCIS mass that was ER-,PR-. I was told the her2 status wasn't checked because it was DCIS. The odd thing with my case was that the mass of DCIS and the invasive tumor shared the same wall. I was 90% ER+ and 95% PR+ on the invasive tumor. My surgical oncologist said it was very rare and there was a review of my case with the hospital's oncology board. I've had great success with my treatments, so despite this rare case, it is my understanding that the prognosis can be very good. I will continue to keep you and your sister in my prayers.
Hayley
