TNBC
Hi there,
Im a 32 yo women, married with a beautiful one year old and have just been diagnosed with stage11A triple negative breast cancer. I will start chemo in a week and I feel like I'm really...
Hi
I'm 45 and was also diagnosed with TNBC in Oct. I have finally finished all treatments 4 rounds of AC 11 taxol and 6 weeks of radiation. Just want to reassure you that it was a long jonuery but you do get through it.
The whole thing happened so quick that i didnt really have time to think. I wanted to have a mastectomy but my dr's thought i didnt need to so only had lumpectomy. Which now i think i regret since reading up on TNBC. From the information i've read i dont think i can every have a mastectomy on that breast..
I'm also in the two minds of doing the gentic testing as i have a family history of BC. The decisions are so hard and now that i have completed all treatments i feel a bit lost.
it's really hard to explain these things family and freinds as they dont understand how i feel. I'm so grateful for the success storys on BCNA. It helps me get through the tough days.
Helen
