I was given the option of mascetomy or lymphnode removal, doc recommended the node removal. Then I go everyday for six weeks of radiation. How will the tubes be taken care of at home>?
thanks Mary
Mary, more info., please: What do you mean lymph node removal vs. mastectomy? Is the cancer in your breast? Is it in your lymph nodes? Which surgery are you having? What will be irradiated? And what "tubes" are you talking about? Thanks-PJH
