[quote]Here's my question: Anybody have any pro/cons on radiation, whether it was needed or not, and re-occurrence for both rad and non-rad.[/quote]None of us are doctors and none of us have your full case history in hand. First, find medical doctors whom you trust then take their advice and recommendations.

We could debate the topic of radiation all day but you could not take a word of it to the bank. Only your doctors can have a meaningful debate about your case in specific. And radiation is far to critical a treatment to be influenced much by what you get here.
