Do I need radiotherapy

DotD
Offline

Hi

Following surgery I have had my results

DCIS ER/ Her neg Grade 0 Stage 1

During the apointment the oncologist said based on above radiotherapy is optional.... lymohnodes clear etc... 

Have an appointment next week having had time to think about it ! .. What do I know ! Bit of an unhelpful apointment and different team, not as caring and informative really.

Anyone been in similar situation and any suggestions! 

  • Hi DotD,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. You can find out more about radiotherapy here - which may provide some useful information.

    If you'd like to talk anything through with our nurses, you can reach them on 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

    Otherwise, the best thing to do is usually to talk it through with your doctor or consultant, who is best placed to advise.

    Wishing you all the best,
