I was diagnosed July with TNCB and started treatment August 3 so things went quickly for me. Have you started treatment? It’s a scary Dx. Remember You are not alone. This site helped me ask questions of my oncologist that I didn’t even know I should ask. I too have a note book with questions and answers. Hope if you haven’t started treatment you do so soon. Take care
Patty, you're doing fine posting here on Mayo Clinic Connect. 🙂
Fellow members like @seathink @lynnj3 @drummergirl @sharonemma @thielmann1 @cmdw2600 @bpknitter53 @eurojones2 @olg1 and many others know what it's like to hear the words "you have triple negative breast cancer". They're here to help support you too.
About finding a counselor, you could ask your oncologist about getting a referral to an oncology social worker. They are very helpful in providing counseling, but also to help you find resources you may need for the journey ahead.
Are you being seen at a cancer center near where you live? What treatment is being recommended?
