Hi Annie - This is a question for your doctor - every woman's breast cancer is specific to her, and only your doctor knows the particulars that will both guide your treatment, and predicts its outcome. Unfortunately, triple-negative breast cancer does have a worse prognosis than other more common kinds. But the good news is, when it responds to chemotherapy, it seems to respond quite well. Best of luck to you, and stay in touch here - we can help. PJH
