Kath, I will let you know I had 3 very large tumours all TNBC I had several nodes involved, my classifciation was Stage 3,
I had a bilateral mastectomy(my choice) and total clearance on the left side in October 2012 then Chemo and radiation I am technically Cancer free just had my 4 year anniversary and when I get to my 5yr one I am technically at the same risk as the general population for any cancer recurrence. We all hate the follow up stuff but that is how they keep a track of our health after a diagnosis.
They wanted me to have some Antidepressants I said no I will deal with it naturally for me that has meant going to see a psychologist and also making sure I do what I need to for my mental health.. You can do this ... one step at a time some days it might need to be one breath at a time ... it will get easier.
Hugs and energy to deal with the Sh*tty head stuff that comes with a diagnosis.
