Triple negative - newly diagnosed and looking for your experiences
Breast Cancer | Last Active: May 8 10:28pm | Replies (52)Comment receiving replies
I was diagnosed TNBC in early 2019 at age 66. Underwent chemo, lumpectomy and radiation which was completed at the end of that year.
I’ll let others chime in on the details, but I’m writing for two reasons. One, I’m still here at age 73, as are many other TNBC patients and two, please don’t read too much about this type. I’m a person who likes to know things so I was constantly reading. There are many advancements even since I was treated and everyone is different so please try to set the scary stuff aside and focus on putting one foot in front of the other.
Best wishes to you and all on this forum.
