Radiation
Can anyone fully inform me on what I can expect if I decide to have radiation on the life side and the possible compromisation of the lungs and heart.

Hi aprie,
Yes all of this is pretty daunting, however I am well and truly over the shock (I think)!
I had a lumpectomy and the margins were clear and the lymph nodes were also clear.
However it has been suggested that I complete radiation as a mop up.
The risks involving future heart and lung issues terrify me. I realise there are no quarantees in life but want to make the best choices for a non compromised future.
Thank you for your response and best wishes.
