I'm also a breast cancer and oral cancer survivor though I had mine diagnosed and treated almost simultaneously. I actually had the radaition for my breast cancer 4 months after the radaition for oral cancer ended and found it SOOOO easy by comparison. Sounds like you had the "easier" one first but got through both just fine. Hope you have a great all-clear checkup!
