Hi all, 

I m new recently diagnosis triple-negative early cancer (grade2). Still asking myself why I having cancer because I have good lifestyle, eat healthy food, just move in new house in Dec 2023, My husband and I willing to start house renov but nothing could happen because we need to fight cancer. 

I had bone scan, MRI and CT scan which result is good, no spreading. After see surgeon and Oncologist they suggest I need to do IVF egg collection to frozen embryo to make sure after cancer free, we can have IVF implant. I had 2 miscarriage in 2023 and we decide should go for IVF cannnot wait any longer. It was almost at this time that I found out that I had breast cancer.

My chemo treatment will start mid-May,I will come here to update the situation and also hope that my egg retrieval will go well, Finger cross! 

Everyone please stay positive, it is not easy but we need flight cancer.

    Hi 

    So sorry to hear about your diagnosis. 

    You have a lot going on, particularly having to think about egg collection too. 

    IVF has come a long way so  can feel secure in that way. 

    Goodluck with your treatment.

    So sorry to see you have also been diagnosed with Triple Negative, @Louise04, specially after your earlier diagnosis & treatment xx. Such a cruel blow.  ...

    Check out the reply on @Eleanoryeye's post .... as it relates to you too - definitely consider the TNBC Private group - they'll be able to help you with info & trials etc - and just comforting to chat with others with the same diagnosis. xx

    Maybe you & Eleanoryeye can also 'buddy up' for mutual support & information as your treatment progresses, given the closeness of your diagnosis dates xx.

    Out of interest - what was your original diagnosis?  A bit of info on your history would be good.

    Yes, connection & support is SO important - I hope you have good family & friends support - who no doubt will be shocked at your most recent diagnosis xx Not fair, really, is it?

    Where abouts are you (roughly?) If you add your 'region' to your profile, members living nearby may be able to steer you to facilities etc that are closer to you. ;) 

    Take care

    My profile thread got caught in this personal profile I have manage to fix. 

    I haven’t even started chemo, so I can’t blame  chemo brain.
