Knock , knock …. New member saying hi

Hi Rolymo,

Welcome to the forum no one wants to be part of.

I also have breast cancer. Mine is her2neg erpostitve prpositive.

I've had op luckily mine didn't tracmvel to lymph glands but was breaking up in boob so classed as grade 3. I have just completed my chemo tough at times but doable to get well. I will now commence my radiotherapy tomorrow for 2 weeks.

The toughest time for everyone is waiting for results. Our minds run riot. It's difficult to think of other things as your mind travels back. However plan small treats, some time with friends and family to distract yourself. Listen to your body. I had to learn to be patient. I didn't realise I was so impatient. I wanted everything done yesterday.

Once you have a treatment plan, your focus changes and you take one step at a time. 

Be kind to yourself, you are strong and you will overcome it all. Xxx

Hi Rolymo

Welcome to the forum and I am sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer and that you have lymph node involvement.  I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer just over four years ago with lymph node involvement and after having chemo, surgery and radiotherapy I made a full recovery.  While I won't say chemo is easy it is doable.  It can be a bit of a whirlwind when you are first diagnosed but once treatment starts things should start to calm down.

Wishing you the best of luck with your treatment.

Best wishes
