Produktbeschreibung
After her diagnosis of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), health journalist Patricia Prijatel did what any reporter would do: start investigating the disease, how it occurs, and how it's treated. While she learned that important research was emerging, she found a noticeable lack of resources on the disease, which affects 70,000 women a year and differs from hormone-positive breast cancer in important ways, including prognosis and treatment options. InSurviving-Triple Negative Breast Cancer, Prijatel delivers research-based information on the biology of TNBC; the role of genetics, family history, and race; how to navigate treatment options; and a plethora of strategies to reduce the risk of recurrence. Woven throughout the book are stories of women who havefaced TNBC: mothers, wives, daughters, and sisters who went through a variety of medical treatments and then got on with life.
