Got my TNBC result yesterday and joined this group today. Had a partial L breast masectomy and sentinel node biopsy (2 nodes removed) on 22/8 as had 9mm tumour (Grade 3)..Op results show clear margin...
Welcome smead - altho sorry for your breast cancer diagnose. I also had clear margins and nodes but due to BRAC1 gene had a bi-lateral mastecomy and start of re-consruction with tissue expanders. Also grade 3 and stage 1.My tumour was 18mm and finished my chemo May 1st. I'm now waiting 2 months to have my implants put in. The LGFG workshop was a lovely experience and lots of great free products - I hope you enjoy your day. Do you have the My Journey Kit ? I found mine invaulable. Your oncologist should help you plan your next steps. What hospital are you attending - I was RAH and had no problems. All the best with the chemo and one tip I can give is have Ice before and during treatment to help with mouth sores. Leanne Xx
