rene1636 - The first oncologist said he’d have genetic testing done and then walked out the door. I haven’t heard anything since. Hopefully, my second opinion oncologist will be more helpful. (I’m calling Monday for an appointment.)
As far as radiation goes, I don’t think it’s a great idea. I still have both my breasts and if there’s a recurrence I wouldn’t have radiation as an option. But I am going to ask about a shortened treatment or “clean up” and find out if that can be repeated if need be. It will be a few weeks, but I’ll let you know what I find out.
Thank you so much for your response.
