@annvirginia, did you decide to have radiation? What questions did you ask your radiation oncologist to help with making your decision?

Hi there,
I had anal cancer 12 yeas ago, and it was treated with mega rounds of external beam radiation. I suffered a lot. It destroyed my labia and now I have vaginal stenosis.
I wouldn't recommend radiation if the it'll be only 4-7% successful.
I'd also like to add that I now have uterine cancer (Stage 3C); and I believe that it was the radiation that did it.
