Hello !
I had hormonal breast cancer 12 years ago had mastectomy with immediate diep flap reconstruction which failed after a week A few surgeries followed all very difficult followed by 9 years on tamoxifen not easy but got through it and back to full health but have just been diagnosed with completely different breast cancer. Triple negative lobular breast cancer 4 to 6 months maybe more chemo ahead and told it’s in a difficult position I just feel so lost and afraid. Don’t know where to turn. Just writing it down. Thanks for listening !

Hi Golden Eye
Welcome to the forum, I'm Daisy53 one of the Community Champions on this forum. I'm sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer. I've had both hormonal breast cancer and triple negative breast cancer. Mine happened in a different order than yours.
I was first diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in my left breast nearly four years ago and then less than 3 years later I was diagnosed with hormonal breast cancer in my right breast and a recurrence of triple negative breast cancer in my left breast. I had to have chemo and radiotherapy both times. I made a full recovery both times and I'm still cancer free nearly two years down the line.
Wishing you the best of luck with your treatment.
Best wishes

Best of luck with your CT Scan, MRI and oncology appointment.
