Hi. Little back story, I had my first lumpectomy back at the end of Dec'23 and then had to have a further surgery beginning of Feb'24 as margins weren't clear. I've had 6 rounds of chemo and have now started radiotherapy. I'm having 10 sessions of radiotherapy, 5 sessions general to the breast and then 5 boost sessions. I had my 2nd session on Friday and have noticed since then that the area where my tumour was (the tumour was very large and clearly visible through the skin so I know exactly where it was) is now very tender. I know the radiotherapy will mess around with things but is this something others have experienced or is it something I should contact the breast care nurse about. I don't want to waste anyone's time if it's 'normal'. Thanks for any advice x
