Quite interesting. I opted for mastectomy to avoid radiation.

Thank you for sharing your story.

FYI I had very mild mitigable side effects with Anastrozole and even less when I switched to name brand.
Did you have undesired side effects from radiation?

Best of luck to you as well.

No noticeable AI effects, and rad was so uneventful I wondered if they were doing it right (technicians seemed awfully young!), a little fatigue perhaps but nothing on skin. But about my recurrence I also think was a rogue cell, site very near lumpectomy scar, but obviously the rad did not eliminate it. Dr. said maybe would have recurred earlier without rad, but still, it was supposed to eradicate those rogue cells.
