Breast cancer triple negative

Hi, I'm 33 years old. I've recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. I have two little girls and I'm worried about my future.

My mother keeps saying I don't need chemo and that she can help me overcome this with "natural" remedies and a very specific diet.

My doctors are very determined to get me into chemo as soon as possible as I have an invasive tumour.

I'm just tired all the time and although I'm trying to stay positive, this situation with my mum and her advice is making me anxious. How do you deal with situations like this? She lives in a different country so she isn't physically here to help, but she wants to help with information and advice. I'm just not sure how to take it all. She seems to disregard the doctors opinions.

  • Hi i have just been diagnosed with inflamatory breast cancer invasive carcinoma her2 possitive. It is frightening when you het the diagnosis, my oncologist has said they can cure with chemo her2 therapy and mastectomy. Its going to be months of treatment but it will save my life. I've also seen all these supposedly herbal treatments even people saying drink this tea and that tea it will cure it. Please listen to your oncologist there are so many treatments now. I know its your mom but she cannot trat you she is not medically trained and is probably seeing all the things on social media. I should be staring chemo nxt week and cant wait to get started. Me and my daughter call it bob the weed and the treatment is weed killer lol. I am taking vit d3 and magnesium glysonate. Also herbal teas to boost the immune before treatment begins.  Please listen to your team they are rhere to save your life. X
