Triple Negative too!
Hi ! My name is Nikki, I am 41 years old with 2 kids age 3 and 7. I found a small pea shaped lump in my right breast about 7 - 8 weeks ago. Since then I have had a right mastectomy and node clearan...
There are a lot of us with TNBC here, all ages, and at various stages of treatment, so I am sure you will receive plenty of posts. Things have moved so quickly for you - your head must be spinning - but we call this journey a roller coaster for good reasons!
You will find loads of information on this site and in the My Journey books - just order from this site - they are free and have a goldmine of information including TNBC. Try not to Google too much as there is a lot of misinformation out there.
One thing I would mention - please check all the supplements you are taking with your Oncologist before you start chemo, as some can interfere with treatment.
I am so sorry you are joining us, but glad that you will find so much support here onsite. Take things one day at a time and try not to look too far ahead - it is easier to cope. We have been right where you are at the moment, and understand how you are feeling. Come online to vent or talk or ask questions - someone will always be here.
Stay strong and take care of yourself. I hope chemo is as kind to you as it was to me. Big hugs, Michelle xx
