Dealing with my 2nd reoccurrence of TNBC right now. Same spot - local . Signatera started about 2 years after 1st diagnosis, and like I said I did the test about every 2 months and all the results were negative even when I my TNBC returned.

Just finished 30 Proton Therapy treatments - horrible side effects. And taking Xeloda for another 4 and 1/2 months.

I’m also a TNBC survivor. Can you please share as much info to help me out? I’m so afraid of recurrences. I was told recurrence rate is 40% for me. That’s why we signed up for Signatera but that isn’t 100% reliable, is it? Did you do chemo (ACT) the first time? Did you achieve pathological complete response?

Could you share what some of "the horrible side effects" were from the 30 Proton Therapy treatments?

What sort of side effects did you have from proton therapy?
I recently had proton therapy and I have soreness. I had some skin problems but they subsided. I am disappointed about your Signatera results. I have draws every 6 weeks. I am triple positive. I am very afraid of a recurrence.
