Dear Everyone
Newly diagnosed.....as TBNC and they cannot find anything in my breasts. Two lymph nodes involved and small tumor removed from my shoulder with poorly differeniated cells with no receptors....hence the tbnc diagnosis. I am scared of both CUP and TBNC.......all tests showed nothing else....anybody ever heard of both together? Help...feeling lost........

Cynthia,
 
We just had a woman post this within the last week. CUP and TNBC, and a tumor in her shoulder. I will do a search and give you her user name. I just want to welcome you to the site, and tell you that there is a wealth of informtion here, and that we will all be here for you every day. I will now send you a private message with my email address so that I can send all the info that I send to the new members.
 
Many hugs,
Nancy

We now realize that Cynthia and cwells1023 are one in the same.
 
Bless your heart Cynthia, as Lori could well identify as to the first 5-6 week after being dx, that she too remembers very little. We are here for you, and whatever you need...just ask!
hugs,
Nancy

Hi Cynthia, my aunt had bone cancer 20 years ago. They never found the primary cancer and believed it originated as breast cancer. In those days there was no way of determining whether it was hormone positive, it has always remained a mystery to us where it originated. Mysteries like that can be very frustrating.

I'll be thinking of you, it's a very frightening time, I hope you have the best of care during your treatment.
