Hello I have just joined the group in the hope that someone is having a similar experience/or already been through the same as me and can offer some encouragement. I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast cancer end October 2020. My treatment plan is two phases of Chemo, followed by a removal of the tumour and then breast saving operation followed by 21 days of radiotherapy. I finished my 1st phase of Chemo which was 4 x ACdd (Doxorubicine and Cyclosfosamide). I had the MRI scan once this treatment was finished but unfortunately the tumour hasn't shrunk in fact it has doubled in size! This has really given me a knock as I just didn't expect to hear the bad news I just assumed the chemo would work. Has anyone else had the same case. I have now been told the breast will be removed ( possibly both depending on the results of the genetic testing). I have started the second phase of chemo treatment which is 12 weeks of Paclitaxel. Of course all my hopes are pinned on this working but its a waiting game and I am finding it hard to handle the not knowing.
Would love to hear from anyone going through the same ordeal.
Just had a look Himalaya, thank you so much. I've signed the petition to allow Trodelvy to be provided free of charge.
Each day the waiting to hear about whether I'm suitable for the clinical trial treatment is becoming more and more stressful. Praying I will hear some positive news this week, will keep you posted.
Happy Monday to you and everyone, we will continue to fight on
