Hi Joanne,
Welcome to this lovely supportive group. I hope we can help you feel less alone,
I had my GP visit on 18th Dec and couldn't get an appointment for mammogram and U/S until 7th Jan, and even then the initial biopsy was done by Fine Needle Aspiration, so I did not get any info about the size or type of cancer until the tumor was removed by surgery and then a week on for pathology to be completed on the tumor.
Howevery, It must have been very upsetting for you to know that you had triple negative cancer and had the BRCA1 and yet not being able to get on with treatment because of it was Christmas. It should all get moving now though. Did you say you have started chemo already? What type are you on? I hope it all goes well. Keep in touch with us, even in the night there are likely to be people here.
best wishes
