Gald to hear that you are through with the surgery. You'll soon be looking back on this and time does make the memory fade (a little anyway).
In our private messages, we discussed that there are a handful of us here that have never had radiation or chemo. This is cetainly a big decision and you will get many opinions.
If radiation does come up, please reread our discussion about having teeth removed.
Hope you feel better real soon.
