jsuzanne; Hi my name is Roger and I have been battling colo/rectal cancer for 5 yrs and diagnosis just happen to be on my birhday #50 and it happens to fall on Dec.31st so that was an eye opener and a happy birthday at the same time. I have had numerous surgeries some successful and some not so successful but I managed to stay focused positively through the good and the bad. I have had chemo treatments every year from anywhere from 12 to 16 treatments a year and I still stay focused. I had to learn new ways to do it and trust opinions of other people. If you would like to continue correspondence post on my wall. Hey, I also live in Wis. Rapids so I am not very far away. I am willing to help you with as much as I can, I have got awesome tricks to stay positive and have clarity for your life. Roger Bray

Welcome to the site. I think that you will find this a friendly place to come when you need to sound off or vent from anger. We are all here to listen and help, if we can, because at some point and time in each of our lives we have been in your situation. Please don't be afraid to ask questions either. No question on this site is silly or dumb. We all have questions we would like other opinions on or answers to. There are so many nice people here that it has helped me get through my fears I had when I was DX'd with DCIS. Good luck in the future.

Hi, I am also a TNBC patient. Sorry to see u are suffering from nausea. What meds are you taking for it? After chemo treatments my doc prescribed Zolfan, it really helps. I also had to take it after one of my surgeries cause the pain killers (perocet) made me sick. Hoping you find some relief. Send me a post anytime...
