Hello! I am for the first time on these forum, my english is not very good :)

I had tnbc in 2014, had lumpectomy, chemo, 2 cm tumor...and now again diagnosed with tnbc in the same breast, but not the same place, 1 cm tumor. I had mastectomy now. Anyone had tnbc cancer twice?

Thanks,

    I did not have tnbc, but my ER positive cancer came back locally 14 months after finishing chemo the first time. I had surgery and chemo. I am doing well now.

    I am sorry you are dealing with this again

    Hi Helen,

    I was diagnosed with a TNBC recurrence in December 2017. I was originally diagnosed in June 2016 - so I had been out of active treatment about 6 months. Ho hum. I had a bilateral on December 29th and started Cisplatin last week. So far I am just moseying along. I had an infection after the mastectomy and am really just starting to feel recovered physically. I am definetely terrified.

    Annie - how horrible. Was your recurrence found via mammogram or did you find it? I’m very happy it was found before it could go elsewhere. Good luck to you.

    Hugs

    Hi VL22

    I felt the recurrence around Thanksgiving and I just KNEW it was back. Pushed for imaging and the whole room knew pretty much right away. It sucks, but I am glad we caught it, too. I had a mammo two month prior. They found nothing then.
