46 / Hi / Comfort of knowing you guys are here /(IVF link?)

I'm not too sure on your question regarding further radiation to the breast or more chemo if it proves to be malignant. I never had radiotherapy...although I should have had for my type and grade of tumour, but I have pre existing lung disease due to scleroderma, and radiotherapists refused point blank. However, my understanding is that radiotherapy is usually not repeated in the same spot, but I have to be clear, that I'm just repeating what I've read, and your medical team would be the best ones to ask. I do know that some chemotherapy drugs such as Adriamicin or Doxyrubicin...same drug and the A pare of AC chemo, has a maximum lifetime limit that it can be given. So if you received the maximum dose the first time, you can't have that drug again, because of toxicity to the heart. However, oncologists have more than two or three arrows in their quivers and I'm sure that if necessary, another chemo would do the job. Again, talk to your doctors, as it's obviously on your mind.
