I was diagnosed with TNBC 3 days ago and since finding out I have been poorly.
I am tired, struggling to eat, had vomiting and diarrhoea and today am feeling nauseous and light headed and dizzy.
Has anyone else had this?
I’ve not started treatment yet as waiting for results of further scans to see if it has spread but I am so worried it has and that’s what these symptoms are?!
Thank you in advance!
Hi Kiwi79 welcome to the forum and BREATHE. You have had the biggest shock of your life, like many of us and it is little wonder you are feeling unwell. It sounds rather than a spread of disease, this could potentially be being caused by high levels of anxiety. All the symptoms you describe are ones that we all know and are familiar with. Deep breathes and move forward 1 day at a time until those scans are past and you know exactly what you are dealing with. Keep yourself busy it helps to pass the time quicker. Thinking of you and we are here for you as you need us to be. Sending some huge big hugs your way for now. X
