Heart attack and stents then went on to have bc in the left breast managed with lumpectomy and proton direct beam radiation administered in the prone position. Did not speak to cardiac oncologist. I had seperate doctors for heart, surgery, radiation care and procedures. So not the same as you exactly but I understand the concern of radiation on the left.

Not what you're looking for?
