Triple Negative battle
Hi all,
I am coming up to my 3rd chemo of EC this coming wednesday. I can not wait for chemo to finish but I have another 14 rounds to go.
I find the actual chemo doable but not the needles. Here...

Hi NARELLE
Boy do I hear ya loud and clear !!!
I was diagnosed TNBC 29/10/2010 and had 16 rounds of chemo . 4x AC then 12 x paclitaxol . Then 25 hits of radio therapy ! It does end !! I know it doesn't feel like it right now . I would be in tears because I was so fearful of the cannula . ... Looking back I think a port may have been a good idea . Maybe ask your Dr as it could take some of the anxiety away! Also did they give you Ativan to take before hand !!! It will help with the anxiety .Ativan is my friend .
Our prognosis is better after 5 years with TNBC and we also don't have to take that pesky tamoxifen so I guess we have to look on the bright side
Best wishes you CAN do it xox .
