agressive type of cancer. I am finished with my chemo (only 4 treatments), but I don't feel like I got a straight answer concerning what testing will be done in the months to come. Bloodwork was mentioned and he commented that insurance companies don't always want to pay for CT scans.
I have triple negative breast cancer. Is there anything that you know about this that you could share with me? It seems like I read somewhere about herceptin, but I don't know anything about that.
Thank you.

Hi craftlady,
February 24, 2011 - 8:32amThank you for your question and for joining EmpowHER. We're so glad you're here. I found a great response to a similar ASK you may want to check out. It is filled with resources for learning more info, and also has some feedback from other members. I hope it's helpful for you:

If you have more questions about your ongoing treatment, don't be afraid to call your doctor's offices and ask to speak with a doctor or nurse to go over the plan. If they're resistant, or seem rushed, schedule an appointment to go over the plan. For your own peace of mind, and to advocate for your own health, it's a good thing.
Good luck, and let us know how you're doing.
