Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm sorry to read that you've recently been diagnosed with triple negative cancer, which I'm assuming is breast cancer. Although I had a different type of cancer to you I know how you'll be feeling and it's perfectly natural to feel as you do right now.
As the community is divided up into different support groups, and I'm right about the type of cancer you have, I'm going to recommend that you join the triple negative breast cancer group and also the main breast cancer group. These are both great places to ask questions, share experiences and get support.
To join just click on the links I've created and then choose 'click to join' or 'join' (depending on the device you're using) on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself and post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment in your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help.
