    Hi all,

    This is my first post - ever, anywhere!!

    I've had four out of my six chemotherapy treatments for breast cancer. It looks like they will suggest radiotherapy before surgery to try to reduce the tumor further. Somehow, its the radiotherapy that gives me the most anxiety, more so than chemo and surgery. I guess I don't understand how it works and how it will affect my body. And if I'm honest it feels a bit scarey…
