I have recently been diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer i have had a lumpectomy in comparison to some the tumour was very small and sentinel node biopsy with 2 nodes removed and results were clear but I am about to start 4 rounds of chemotherapy and then radiotherapy still awaiting results on genetic testing .It has been so over whelming
What do I expect from chemo it's has been making me feel really apprehensive and scared
Hi and welcome to the forum. There is a chemotherapy thread you might have more luck posting on as it's usually quite active CLICK HERE
I didn't need chemo but I have read a lot of posts on here and on the whole most peple find it very doable and not as bad as they thought it would be so try not to be too scared and check out the chemo thread.
Hope it all goes smoothly for you.
