My wife was diagnosed  with TNBC in April  23 undertook 6 months  of chemo before a lumpectomy  and three lymph  nodes  being removed . 

After first op was told chemo hadn't  worked , a further operation  was undertaken  followed  by 19 radiotherapy  appointments  and a further  6 months of oral  chemo this finished in September. 

Yesterday  she found a new lump in the collar  bone area and she is waiting  on a urgent  oncology  appointment  absolutely  devastated  is it the original  cancer or a new one .as chemotherapy  didn't  work what can they do

    Sorry to hear that your wife was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer and that her chemo didn't work.  While I'm  not a expert the lump in the collar bone area could be a swollen lymph node.

    Wishing your wife the best of luck with her appointment and hopefully it will be nothing serious.

    Best wishes
