My Mums triple negative breast cancer

I’m due to go with Mum on Tuesday for our first oncologist appointment.. are there any particular questions I should be asking . 

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat, Trickle66.

    I'm sorry to hear that your mum was diagnosed with breast cancer.

    As you asked for advice I hope that some of our members who have been through the same experience will come along shortly to talk with you.

    The other thing I wanted to mention is that it might be a good idea to approach your mom's oncologist appointment with an open mind and readiness to absorb information. Each person's situation is unique, and the questions you ask may depend on the information provided during the consultation. Just ensure you're prepared to listen carefully and ask any pertinent questions that arise during the discussion.

    Also, if you feel like asking our team of nurses for some suggestions, they'd be happy to chat with you Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m on this freephone 0808 800 4040.

    Wishing you and your mom strength and clarity as you navigate this process together,

    Renata, Cancer Chat Moderator
