Hi Frank,
It's interesting that you got were offered a choice of a treatment plan. In my case, the team only recommended XRT after surgery. I was lined up to talk with the chemo doctor, but they "called off the dogs" after reviewing my case. I didn't argue-- I was quite thankful actually. The IMRT was bad enough!
Regards,
Oscar
