Hi there. My mom is a 10 year IDC breast cancer survivor. She was treated with lumpectomy/rads/hormone therapy. She recently noticed the treated breast has shrunk in size. Could this be a late side effect of radiation all those years ago? She had a normal mammogram last week. I am worried this could be a new problem. Any ideas?? Thanks!

    have it checked out
    You mom should have the oncologist check it out. Could be the scar tissue, or as we get older some of us get smaller. The doc may suggest an MRI. Always good to check things out....
