Hi @Maree72 .... I had my surgery in mid Jan and started my Rads in about Mid March (the 4 weeks of treatment was finished by Easter Fri.)
I was told I didn't 'have to' start til after Easter if I wanted - but I had a holiday booked to Norfolk Island at that time & wanted the Rads 'over & done with' before heading off for it .....
I think 'the wait' can largely depend on how well you've healed from your surgery.
They are unlikely to do Rads with surgical wounds that have not fully healed.
I started AIs shortly after Rads finished.
If you are feeling anxious, can you chat with your BC Nurse (if you have one) or ring the help line here? Take care xx
