I was 65 when first diagnosed in 2020.
I too lived more than 50 miles from my treatment center. They gave me 16 radiation treatments in 16 days. I guess they thought if it was drawn out with a lesser dose, that I would not complete it.
It was rough. My skin was raw by the end.
My sister had the same dose but hers was over two months time! She had no problems.
