The story so far!
Im 33 and was diagnosed with triple negative grade 3 in my right breast one month ago. I had lumpectomy surgery two weeks ago and had genetic testing yesterday to see whether I have a gene mutati...
33 is so young! Sorry to hear you have to go through this too. If it helps I can share my experience. I am a bit older, 57 when diagnosed with the grade 3 TNBC. Lumpectomy, 4 weeks to recover then into AC chemo for 12 months followed by Paciaxel every week for 12 weeks. The AC would make me very tired and when I got home, I slept if off. It would take about 9 days to wear out of the system and then I got my energy back again. The Pacitaxel was no problem except my toes got numb towards the end. I carry the gene mutation so had to make decisions about my future but that waited until I had finished chemo. I agree with you about taking it one day at a time. The path rolls out as you take the next step. It did change my life and I'm a better person now too! I wish you a speedy treatment, x
