@cherziggy, I want to acknowledge your joining this discussion too. I can see you are also worried about side effects of radiation. The helpful comments from @mossa @auntieoakley @crteelect @sandybainy1 are relevant to your situation too and hopeful help put you at ease.
Ziggy, it can help to go for a second opinion. I'm glad you're doing that. Can you share a bit more about feeling uneasy? Is there something in particular that you're concerned about or is it a general unease with the unknown or??

My foremost worry are the cancer cells found in my node. Getting off the Letrozole… I was happy about this for a minute, then the fear of circulating cancer cells from the node hit my thoughts. I feel unprotected. Started the second week of my radiation yesterday so two weeks left. I’m so far doing good with it. Two weeks after radiation I have been told by my Dr. to start the tamoxifen. I had a total hysterectomy 25 years ago so that’s a little comfort. I’m 69.
