If you are highly ER+ you might ask if the treatment with aromatase inhibitors (or tamoxifen if younger) will be sufficient without the radiation.

I was told that one out of 5 radiation oncologists would want me to have radiation. I did not, and am 9 years out now. I got 4 opinions on treatment.

Good to know ! Thank you SO MUCH for this piece of information. I am glad that I signed up with this group . I don't feel alone .... 🙏🏻💕

I didn’t know if not going for radiation is also an option. I have also been recommended radiation and then Tamoxifen after Lumpectomy.
