I’m getting ready to start radiation and just had a lumpectomy two weeks ago with some reconstruction. My plastic surgeon said the radiation can change that and I may have to have some more surgery to fix what the radiation does!! It’s one thing then another. I’m sorry Caitlin.. I pray you fight your way through this journey.. God be with you..🙏🏻❤️✝️

The journey through breast cancer treatment can feel overwhelming when each step brings new challenges and uncertainties. Many people in this community understand the frustration of facing additional procedures and the anxiety that comes with radiation therapy affecting reconstruction results. Your strength in moving forward step by step is remarkable, and sharing these experiences helps others who may be facing similar decisions feel less alone in their own treatment journey.
