Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm sorry to read that you've recently been diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer but you've come to the right place to ask questions, share experiences and get support.
You might also like to join the triple negative breast cancer group and, if this is something you'd like to do, clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there. You can then join and post in the same way as you did here.
It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into 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.

Hi Tripleneg1
Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with Triple negative breast cancer. I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer last September and after having 8 cycles of chemo as well as surgery and radiotherapy I am in remission.
Wishing you the best of luck with your treatments and hopefully the side effects will be kind to you.
Best wishes
