Newly diagnosed TNBC I have seen the oncologist once and the discussion was overwhelming I’m not even sure what stage I have. I meet with him again August 6 and this group has been so helpful as to what questions I need to ask.
I will also have a PET scan on July 31 and start immo therapy and chemo on the 6th so glad I found this site

What is TNBC stand for? It is not fun going through all of this I know! I have invasive lobular BC on one side. Thinking good thoughts for you.

Welcome @lynnj3, I moved your post to this existing and active discussion:
- Triple Negative Breast Cancer: What treatments are you having? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/triple-negative-breast-cancer/

I did this so you can read previous posts and connect easily with other members with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) like @thielmann1 @kk57 @olg1 @drummergirl @bpknitter53 @rahrah6263 @leolion811 @mkb4435 and more.

You've certainly come to the right place to un-pack that sense of overwhelm and prepare your questions for your upcoming appointment next week. What immunotherapy and chemotherapy regimens will you be starting? What questions do you have from others in the group who have been there?

@lynnj3 things are moving quickly for you. Keep us posted! It is overwhelming but those I know who have gone through the immunotherapy and chemo found it doable in the end and I hope the same is true for you.
