cindyt,

There are plenty of us out here who have had RT. While I wouldn't use the term good results, I am cancer free at this moment. There are side effects to live with, but to me it's worth it. Everyone responds a little differently to their treatment. The help I found here, from folks who had gone through it before me, made the side effects more manageable.

It's been a little over three years for me and I believe I made the best decision for me and my family. If you decide to have RT then use the information from the article to make sure your team monitors your therapy closely. And there are lots of folks here that will help w/all your questions or concerns

hope this helps
