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.

Yes I had 4 weeks of rads including 5 boosts. This time I will have 5 weeks of rads with no boosts. The tentative timeframe will be in September. I pray that your cancer doesn’t come back 🙏🏼 I hate cancer 😡
