What is breast radiation like and what side effects should I expect?

Good morning, my first CT Simulation was rescheduled for tomorrow, 6/18 due to the flooding in Houston earlier this week. Just found out MDA will be giving me 520 cgy each day for 5 straight days, total dose of 2600 cgy. Still a bit nervous with the radiation, but we will see. Hope you are doing well. Hugs,
Suzanne

@texashummingbird Yes, I believe they found the slightly lower level was equally as good, with less longterm issues.
I actually had radiation at the Woodlands MDA, nice facility. It was a better location for me, and I stayed at a friend’s house for the week. I’m at Huntsville State Park at the moment! I read about the flooding. Hope it clears soon! Best wishes!
