Hi ladies. I just read your post Sandram and i just wanted to say that i began my radiation therapy last week. My cancer was in my left breast and i am having Deep Inspiration Breath Hold. My oncologist showed me the CT scan yesterday so I could see how the radiation works. It was fascinating. I could see how my heart moved out of the way when my breath was held. I dont even have any residual radiation on my heart. So....the next three weeks of Rad wont be as scarey :smiley:
