Fred: Your welcome. I went down that road too regarding radiation and removal later on. I was told that there are a smaller number of surgeons who will do the removal but I was assuming, because of the liability issues, that surgeons shy away from it but then we have seen that with all doctors/surgeons who are asked to repair work from another doctor later on. One thing that stood out for me (and there were more than a few), was, to quote the Cornell Weill radiation oncologist, " if you can see it, you can treat it." I will keep my research up on imaging and the radioactive contrasts after my treatments. By the way, I have children so I also had the myrisk test by Myriad, a genetic test for problem genes. Maybe you knew but I did not, that my daughter (and obviously my sons) could be at breast cancer risk if I showed a problem with my brca or other genes. I had no gene issues but it was a surprise to me. I was told by Myriad that biopsy samples are good for up to a year for testing.

Feel free to prvate message me if you want to bounce something off me. I am just a guy who has spent a good deal of time researching many sources as I was really afraid of making the wrong decision so I think I gathered some insight.
