Amelia, congrats on your wonderful news!! I had my mast. a little over 2 weeks ago. My onc said if I chose to do a mast that I would not need to do radiation...my case is different from yours since I had no node involvement but just wanted to post....best of luck on your surgery and a speedy recovery!
