My reoccurrence showed up from my ultrasound not mammogram. It was found in the fibroadipose tissue, localized (1.5cm) and they removed that with my Level 1 and 2 lymph nodes. It was right next to my lumpectomy. Thank you very much🥰

Did they do radiation on that same site after the lumpectomy? It was suggested that I have post-lumpectomy site-specific radiation as a kind of "clean up the area in case of missed cancer cells" but I was past the 6-week optimal time and declined. I was on the fence about it anyway so likely would have declined but this was an ER+, PR+ HER2- tumor, which I understand is a whole different animal.
