Newly Diagnosed
Hi my name is Nat and have had a big day today finding out I have an Invasive Duactal Triple Negative 8cm mass. Wow finally blogged it and got it out there!! I am so scared about starting this jour...
Hi Nat,
I was diagnosed with TNBC in August last year, and really can't remember a lot of the whirlwind of the last 6 months. It has gone so quickly - which I'm grateful for. I had a lumpectomy, 8 rounds of chemo and two weeks ago had a bilateral mastectomy with expanders. The main thing I can say is ask for help when you need it, but also give yourself space to be alone. I found a number of alternative therapies (in conjunction with chemo & surgery) really helped me. Reiki, acupuncture, meditation and yoga. If there is anything I can help with, please do not hesitate to ask.
Much love,
Penny
