I was diagnosed with invasive carcinoma breast cancer Stage 2a grade3


I was diagnosed with invasive carcinoma breast cancer Stage 2a grade3?
no lymph nodes were involved , all tests came back negative for receptors , which i believe it was a triple negative cancer. I had 6 treatments of chemo and am now going through 6 weeks of radiation. I am 36 yrs old. What are my chances of this reoccurring? no one can tell me why or how i got it , and there is NO history of breast cancer in my family.

I'm a Breast Cancer survivor for almost 2 years. The Cancer I had was stage 2 lobular invasive and it had started going out side of the lobules, The type I had was not seen on a mammogram or ultrasound it only showed up on an MRI and only 10 to 15% are infiltrating or invasive, mine was E R positive and it is not genetic. The kind I had was estrogen fed and I am now on Femara for 5 years. They gave me Tamoxifen but I had a severe reaction to it, You didn't say if your cancer was ductal, lobular , or something else. It would be hard to say what your chances of recurrence is. Like I said about the type I had it was estrogen fed and no one in my family had this. The great thing is because of mine being what it was I don't have to worry that I passed it down to my Daughter. The BRACA1 and 2 were negative for genetics. But I do have a chance of recurrence and it coming back in different parts of my body. But that won't happen God took mine away and he won't let it come back. Sometimes we really can't get all of our questions answerd because there really is no answer why it was you, but you had the cancer cells in your body and they invaded and became cancer. What I was told was every person has Cancer cells, but not all people get cancer
