How long is to long to wait for radiation
Hi , it will be 10 weeks from my lumpectomy and SNB to see the oncologist , is the radiation still effective considering it will probably be 12 weeks to start? And I worry that it will be over 6 mon...
I had to wait 4 months I had private cover but went public because of the out of pocket expenses. I rang the bc nurse and told her it was stressing me out waiting and the next day they rang me. I had 30 treatments and then your body needs to rest and heal before you start on meds. Radiation is like the mop that sweeps up any little cancer left. I'm noe4 years post diagnosis. Regards adean
