Hi there!

Sorry to hear of your recent diagnosis but glad you've sought support - feeling like I'm not alone has been the main thing keeping me afloat.

I was diagnosed with grade 3 TNBC last month and have just had surgery with chemo and radiotherapy to follow. Full details are in my bio if you fancy a little bedtime reading!

It is very much a shock to the system to suddenly now have this major thing to deal with in your life and the emotions you go through can be varied. I swung wildly between feeling quite defiant and positive to then just feeling completely hopeless and deflated. I'm glad to say that this has settled somewhat now, even though I do still have my moments, and it does help massively to have that support from your medical team, your loved ones and people going through the same.

Hopefully you get some more info from your nurse today - please do keep us updated!

All the best x
