Hello
I've just been diagnosed with invasive ductal cancer grade 3 triple negative I'm so scared is anyone going through the same?
Hi Claud big hug to you . The school are taking it too far now issuing a letter about it . Good job your son has you fighting his corner as he will turn into a well rounded adult . Sadly the schools response to this will do nothing to help with that . Xxx.
Hello Rose glad you have had a good experience with your treatment and well done for getting through it . Can I ask if you were given the choice about whether to have surgery first or chemo first . I was more or less rail roaded into chemo first when all I really wanted was the little critter evicted. I too have TNBC grade 3. I think for me it all happened so quickly I didn’t have time to stop and think about whether I had options or not .
What are others experiences of treatment options at the start ?

Thanks Anna , good news is long overdue for us xxx
Thankyou , much more positive now . Even dated to start planning adding to our family - hold on , no not a child but another dog
Thanks Mel , good luck with your 2nd chemo tomorrow xxxx
Hi Jayne , how are you doing , I have to confess I have been worried about how you are coping , Have you spoken to your GP yet . I already take medication for depression and anxiety which without it I don’t think I would still be here , I don’t share this with everyone but if it helps you to realise that you are going through so much and a little help to cope in times if trauma is ok xxxx
Hi Harley
My head is spinning after another call with another onco, as I was very worried how strong the chemo will impact me. I could not get my head round the three options and will wait for their advise on paper. Onco thinks the weekly ones may suit me better, but I worry there is then no let up at each weekly cycle! Sigh...I will try not to stress myself silly. May I ask something silly. When your lashes fell, did it hurt your eyelids or did it fall into your eyes? I absolutely hate things falling in my eyes. I am weird lol
Tq for your comfort about school. I had just wished it wasn't such a cancelled culture we live in.
When is you next bout? And what is this the new one after after your EC?

Loving the good spirit...I was about to ask you to name your child Claud lol.....I can hear you're in such a good place

Good luck Mel...Will be thinking of you tomorrow.
you alright?
Hey Shazzer...have you got taste bud back? It's not nice but I hope the boiled sweets are giving you some relief.....my guess is there isn't much that can be done about metallic taste? Some people say just eat bland food. I do hope it will pass soon.
