The Foxs Lady
I'm feeling very isolated as a TNBC in my area.
To my knowledge there is one other (a recent diagnosis who is now going head long into intensive treatment).
I have physically met three survivors...
thanks for your comments Jo.
My oncologist never told me anything about a prognosis.
He did say, that I should go home and do whatever I wanted to do. Not to put things off but also not to panic.
My GP who is now my primary carer, said to me that it never really goes away, but we treat what comes when it comes and we monitor things to make sure we are informed earlier.
The initial surgeon I saw wanted PET scans and all tests done three monthly.
The second surgeon (who has never done surgery on me) suggested I just do nothing but recover for twelve months. He talked about prolonging life for up to 14 years.
With my chemo brain everything has been challenging.
