I would love to chat with someone who has had a lumpectomy and then did the Mammosite 5 radiation. I had surgery on March 2,2012. Finished radiation on the 15th. Just wondering how the healing process has gone for others. I don't know anyone else that has had this kind of radiation to discuss how things were for them.

    hi
    I had it but only half the week. The entire cavity was not being reached so I wound up getting external rads, too. I don't remember the healing process but hope it is going well for you.
