I was dx at 68 and my express was pretty similar to dolphina3. I did a lot of my own advance research to see what I was looking at for TNBC treatment, I'm BRCA2+. I did chemo first to shrink mass, then bilateral, I also went flat, then I did radiation, lastly I took lynparza because I'm BRCA2+. I tried to focus on people's more hopeful and constructive experiences on what they did to prepare for each treatment. I tried to stay away from bad experience comments. Learning what I could do to make each treatment a better experience was extremely helpful to enter the treatment with less anxiety for me. Best of luck, to your mom I'm currently 3 yrs NED

I’m also a brca2. My bc was detected early by self breast exam. Are you taking aromatase inhibitor along with lynparza? I’m only prescribed ai for 5 years. I wonder why parp inhibitors are not included in my treatment. I’ll will ask my onco in the next appointment. Is lynparza prescribed to you because of TNBC? Thanks.
