It is absolutely an individual decision and no one’s diagnosis is the exact same. We are all unique yet we have a common enough thread for us to understand one another.
I also opted to have radiation. My surgeon encouraged it. I did 25 rounds. 5 days a week no weekends. I will be honest, around day 14 I felt the burn and lathered in the cream they prescribed me. But everyone’s skin is different I pray that you fair it well. After radiation was done I began Tamoxofin, as I am estrogen and progesterone positive. I wish you well on your radiation journey. It goes quick I can at least promise you that.
