Radiotherapy & side effects

Hi.
I’ve had 6 months of chemo, lumpectomy with lymph nodes, then total lymph node removal. 15 radiotherapy advised. After number 12, I had a heart attack caused by radiotherapy. Back home this week and on number 15 today. So anxious I’ll have another one and feeling pretty hopeless ….

Hi @janske
That must have been very frightening for you.
Did the medical team tell you it was due to radiotherapy? I must admit I haven’t heard of that before. How awlful

I can only imagine how worried you must be resuming the radiotherapy. How many sessions have you got to have? I am confused why they would put you through any further treatment if they thought you were at risk.

Could you speak to the breast care nurse to try and allay your fears.

Really hope all goes well for you

Lynn
