Radiation after lumpectomy
wondering what's the normal time after lumpectomy does radiation start? I had the small cancer and one node with cancer removed on 1st April. ( one node had changing cells - pre cancer). Oncologist ...
I had 13mm tumour out by lumpectomy with clear margins snd one node with 1.1mm carcinoma snd another node with changing cells. I had radiation snd am taking hormone meds as cancer was 100% oestrogen & progesterone but didn’t have chemo. Radiation was ok. Hormone meds are ok. I’d do the same again if I had too. But I’m looking at the alternatives right now for my future. To keep the cancer at bay. Your gut knows.
