I received radiation at Siteman Cancer Center, part of Washington University in St.Louis, MO. I was originally told radiation 5 consecutive days. Was so happy to do it only once! I have no burned skin with only one treatment. Had some soreness for about a week so not bad at all. I will be followed by rad oncology and med oncology for at least 5 years. I also am taking Exemestane with absolutely no side effects. I chose that aromatase inhibitor because it is steroidal and is more bone protective than the others. I was diagnosed with osteopenia prior to my breast cancer diagnosis!
