Preparing for radiotherapy

Hello,

I am 51 years old and not yet menopausal.  I have recently had a small (5mm) grade 1 tumor removed, following by sentinel node biopsy where 1 node was taken and was clear. 

Tumour was ER+,PR+,HER2-.

I started Tamoxifen last week - so far no side effects that I've noticed.  Will start radiotherapy in a fortnight.

For some reason I am dreading the radiotherapy more than the other treatments I have had.  I've gone through the numbers with the docotors and I understand how beneficial it is, but I still don't want to do it.
