Hi Donna
My situation sounds very similar to what you have described. I had two surgeries very close together but got the all clear of my lymph nodes.

I was very happy with how the radiotherapy went & all the staff were fantastic/friendly.
Of all the cancers to have I'm grateful mine was breast cancer as the support has been wonderful.
