Size does matter ...sometimes!
After everyone helped me out last week with my query about the size of the tumour affecting treatment ... thank you, thank you, thank you ... I'd thought I'd post a follow up.
Saw my radiation oncologist yesterday and asked the question. Does size matter? Well yes, especially if chemotherapy is involved, but not so with radiation, as the whole of the breast is radiated anyway. I am so lucky I have dodged the chemo bullet.
Anyway, I was supposed to have undergone my mapping for radiation, but turns out I now have an infection with a sore, swollen, red breast. Thought is was looking a bit odd the other day! Radiation has been put on hold until antibiotics clear up the infection, so ... more waiting.
Oh joy!
Take care everyone.
