mTNBC Update – CT Scan Results
31 January 2026
The shock of receiving a terminal diagnosis just two months ago has taken a significant physical and emotional toll on Tamsyn, and right now it’s about getting through each day as it comes. It’s been a rollercoaster— but she’s still standing.
The past week has been full on, with blood tests, a CT scan, port surgery, and infusion/chemo number four completed.
There has been some incredibly good news from the first CT scan since diagnosis. After just three treatments:
• Liver: 2 tumours – no longer visualised
• Bone: all tumours – no longer visualised
• Adrenal: 1 tumour – no longer visualised
• Lungs: 1 tumour no longer visualised, the other reduced in size
• Lymph nodes: 3 tumours – all reduced by more than half
• Outer chest: 1 tumour – no longer visualised
• No new tumours identified anywhere
Still a bumpy road ahead but this past week has brought some well overdue positive news.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone who has continued to support Tamsyn during this incredibly tough time — the messages, visits, care packages, meals, and generous donations. Every bit of support means more than words can say and is helping with ongoing treatment and creating precious memories with family.
As the treatment seems to be doing its thing, with it comes on going - unfunded medical costs.
Tamsyn will continue with chemo every 3 weeks, each round costing upwards of $14,000.
