Preparing for radiotherapy
Posted by EstherR on 05 Jul 2012, 03:07PM
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.
