Hi I was diagnosed with TNBC in my right breast and nodes in December last year. I had 6 cycles of FEC-T followed by a lumpectomy and full node removal. This was followed up by 20 rounds of radiotherapy. Since I finished my treatment at the end of September this year I have been plagued by gastric issues and generalised bone pain in my back and collarbone. Every day I wake up and always have some sort of pain. Are other folks having the same issues? Xx
Hi I had the same treatment for TNBC over 10years ago - I had the same side effects after the treatment had finished,including gastric issues and generalised upper body bone pain , it’s slowly improved after about 6 months and I haven’t had any issues since then .Hopes this info helps xx
Thanks for getting back pwilkinson32 . After treatment finishes it’s like stepping into the unknown again but it’s reassuring to know that other people that been through this and it’s a version of normal I’m going through. Good to know you’re 10 years down the line and doing well xx
