Hi
I had ER/PR + her2 - Stage 0. Lumpectomy.
I was offered 20 sessions radiation 4 wks or 10 days . 5 days Lumpectomy site, next 5 days whole breast dbl dose. I took the 10 days. No burning at all. No skin issues . Just put my cream on afterwards. My radiation fatigue was wicked. I am 11 mths post and starting to get more energy. I also have fibromyalgia though and was taken off hrt after 14yrs so it's been a roller coaster with menopause.
