Hi Butch
I'm far from knowledgeable on this but this page from BCNA About radiotherapy treatment covers the basics.
Have you had an appointment with your radiation oncologist? Or a planning session?
I'm currently halfway through three weeks but for invasive breast cancer so I'm not sure how they are similar or different treatments.
The various medical people I've seen each day have been very attentive offering advice, asking how I'm doing, handing me tubes of products to care for my skin, etc. I'm feeling very well monitored :)
Hopefully someone who has had radiation for DCIS will see your message soon and give their insights.
