Newly Diagnosed with TNBC

Hi Nique. I am so sorry to hear about your diagnosis, not a nice Christmas present! I am a 51 year old mother of 4 that was diagnosed with TNBC in early September.  It definitely is a surreal feeling, you feel like you are operating on auto pilot.  I had Paclitaxel and Carboplatin first and I didn’t find that too bad. I have now started AVC and I am finding this exhausting. I think there are so many questions and so much information to try and process when you are first diagnosed that you really need a good support network. As chemo progresses, you get into a bit of routine and things become more familiar. The nurses at chemo re amazing and are incredibly supportive and can help heaps with questions.
