Hi all newbies with TNBC

Hi Wizz, I'm brand new to the forum.  I was diagnosed with tnbc a month ago and am 5 weeks into chemo.  I'm British but currently living in Hong Kong.

I'm having 12 weeks of weekly paclitaxel, every 3 weeks I'll have an additional infusion of carboplatin.  Once those 12 weeks are up I have a two week break then I have fortnightly cyclophosphamide for 8 weeks.

I'll then have surgery (I do have some lymph node involvement) and radiotherapy.

Hi

I Was diagnosed with TN April 2018.  I then had 4 x FEC and 4 x Docetaxel.  I had these every 3 weeks.

I then had lumpectomy in Nov, no lymph node involvement.  Went back for the results 3 weeks later and got the all clear.  I then went on to have 15 x rads.

I just took one chemo at a time and thought everytime I had my treatment, it was a step closer to getting better.

Good luck with your treatment!

Thankyou fortaking the time to respond-still waiting to start chemo as had 3 weeks antibiotics 3 weeks after the surgery so the waiting is causing a lot of physical as well as mental issues

Thankyou for your response to me

im still waiting to start chemo as post operative mastitis has taken 3 weeks of antibiotic to clear up and that happened 3 weeks after the surgery which appeared to be healing well
