Has anyone with TNBC avoided red devil chemo due to heart issues?
Community Member
a day agoHi, I'm 46 and just got diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer-Grade 3-Stage 2B. Genetic testing came back inconclusive with a variety of uncertain significance in the POLE Gene. I want to stay away from the red devil bc of current heart issues and family history. Then will be doing a bilateral masectomy with reconstruction. Has anyone here with TNBC done chemo treatments without red devil?

20 hours agoMany people in this community have explored different chemotherapy options with their oncology teams when standard protocols aren't suitable due to heart concerns or other medical factors. This is definitely a conversation worth having with your medical team, as they can discuss alternative treatment approaches that may be appropriate for your specific situation and help weigh the benefits and risks of different options for TNBC.
