Does this mean that you have an underactive thyroid? Or?
Do you feel there is a connection between the two things? I've had low thyroid for more than 20 years, but well-treated. Recent breast cancer but not triple negative. It is always concerning to find something else problematic when in the midst of a breast cancer diagnosis. How are you doing? Will you have chemo before surgery? Dows the thyroid seem treatable? I'm sorry no one has weighed in with this exact situation, but keep us updated and wishing you all the best.

It means my thyroid is now under active. My dr says I will need more tests. I was first diagnosed in January with TNBC. My thyroid tested fine in October but high in February. The current plan is 12 weeks of chemo with 4 rounds of immunotherapy then surgery followed by 8 rounds of chemo and immunotherapy. I have now done 1 round immunotherapy and just finished second week of chemo. So far I am doing well with it some nausea but meds work. Mostly achy and so tired.
