I finished my treatment for b cancer just before Christmas . I had chemo, lumpectomy and radiation. I had three weeks but they couldn’t do the boost of radiotherapy because I had healed so well as they couldn’t see where the tumour was .  They said it would cause damage to my breast if they did.I was upset but had to trust them but I am interested to know if anyone else didn’t have the extra boost.  I have just started for some reason to get anxious because I was 47 when I was diagnosed last year and one node was positive and from what I’ve read a boost would of helped with recurrence.  
thank you
