Anyone have metaplastic squamous cell carcinoma of the breast?

Thanks for the info on lipophilic statins at MD Anderson. The stage of my cancer at dianosis was 1b since the tumor was very small, 1 centimeter. As I understand it the tumor bed grew to 1.5 cent. during chemo but the TNBC was seemingly gone. In it's place were multifocal small spots of metaplastic breast cancer. I think the stage changed during the chemo, but not sure. The grade did change to a worse prognosis, but not sure. Metaplastic BC is 1% of breast cancers so there has been little research done on it.

Curious as to what chemo you had. My initial chemo was only minimally effective. My surgery was good and I was pronounced cancer free, but since chemo did not get all of the tumor, I had another round of a different combo. I am three years past diagnosis and we hold our breath with every check up. How long since your diagnosis and how are you doing?
