I’ve just been diagnosed with TNBC. I’m currently waiting for my treatment plan. Please can you tell me how you’re getting on? I feel like my life has stopped and TNBC is all i think about.
So sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I was diagnosed on 19th November this year and had a lumpectomy and lymph node biopsy last week on 18th December.
I found that initially it took over my life and is still very much a huge part of it as I've only completed the first phase of my treatment and am waiting for further results, but it has somewhat settled since I found out.
Just a tip that while this forum is more focused on TNBC, the Breast cancer forum is a lot more active and there are plenty of ladies on there with a TNBC diagnosis so you might want to check in there too.
They have said chemo before surgery which I am fine with. My worries are I haven’t read any good stories regarding success only reoccurrence. I am a mum of a 5 and 7 year old and all I want to do is cry. Sorry to dampened the mood x
I was diagnosed with metaplastic breast cancer last year triple negative and found out a few months ago that it has spread to my lungs as secondary metastatic breast cancer. I’m a single mum to a 3 year old and was originally told I wouldn’t see next Christmas. I’ve managed to get onto a trial at st Bartholomew’s hospital for a new immunotherapy drug which they said is having really positive results. I’ve also read of new treatments coming out for triple negative, the lady running my trial has said new treatments are coming out almost monthly so I have hope she’s also told me I’ve got many many years , I said I want to see my son grow up but that was probably unrealistic and she said they would make it their goal too and it wasn’t necessarily unrealistic she gave me real hope and I have to have faith in her and the team.
