Half way through my chemotherapy and I found a third recurrence on my mastectomy scar. Confirmed by my surgeon and ultrasound on Monday night. I’m just not sure how you pull yourself back up after this. I can’t stop crying. Positives I know are that it’s once again contained in Breast area…. Praying that chemo does its work and kills it off. They having another meeting this week to discuss my rare case and praying they come up with answers. Got my picc line redressed this morning and had good cry with breast nurses. They are gutted too with this latest find. I can’t help thinking the worst whilst trying to be positive and believe that chemo will work. Just needed to write it down, helps knowing others are there xx
Hi Whitestar
I’m sorry to hear that your cancer has come back again and that it’s triple negative. I was diagnosed with grade 3 triple negative 18 months ago. I had chemo, surgery and radiotherapy and I’m now cancer free.
Wishing you the best of luck with your treatment.
Best wishes

Hey, I know! I can’t believe I’m writing again. It just seems to be never ending. But hearing your story gives me hope that this chemo will work. They are talking about more surgery and more radiotheraoy but want to see if the chemo shrinks it. They are only tiny nodules keep coming back but they are baffled as to why. I’ve stopped crying tonight so that’s a start! Thankyou xxx

Thanks so much. I think I’m just feeling deflated with it all. Hopefully tomorrow I will gather myself together again. Thankyou
