I'm thrilled to be joining my fellow rad grad sisters! I had my final treatment at 0800 this morning...25 regular treatments and 5 boosts. My breast is very tender and I'm told it will get worse before it gets better! Still, very glad it is done with and looking forward to looking forward! Will start tamoxifen at the end of the month...then it will be waiting for the follow-ups.

Thanks to those of you who've gone before me, provided lots of info and support. I read a lot more than I post. I so appreciate the knowledge that my fears are like those of others and, though comments may not be directed toward me, I feel like they are. After all, we are sisters in the battle!

Halleluiah! God is Good!!!!

    Congrats on finishing rads! Keep putting the creams on for awhile as the radiation is still working on you. Enjoy your freedom now.

    congrats on finishing rads! My breast returned to normal quickly, so I hope yours does, too, even though it was in bad shape at the end of rads. Enjoy....
