well d.one! i might be one of those lucky ones too--depends on how you look at it. i think there are a lot of women who are having treatments in a very researched, best practice kind of way which may not be what is seen as 'standard treatment---and the bonus to this appraoch is what you say the time is halved on treatment and i like the intervention being limited to one surgery, one hospitlisaiton, one blood test, etc
im not so fussed about communication between the practiitioners; but feel good that ive got a great gp, fantastic surgeon and oncologist--and radiation team were fantastic --and communicaiton is/was great between me and all of them, and that there was a great deal of consideration on what was done/not done..best wishes
