Yes Krys...you are right! Triple neg. is agressive but responds well to chemo. And as you say...if it returns it is usually within the first few years.
After that you have a better chance of not having a recurrence than ppl with other forms of breast cancer have.
There are many ppl on other sites who have remained healthy with no recurrence. As you say...there was no testing for triple negs years and years ago so you are not going to know if ppl who were dx 20 years ago and are cancer free were triple negs or not...maybe many were?
I wish you all well with your treatment.
