Question Questions for those that had/have paget's disease of the

The day after Annette's second surgery she noticed her nipple was
quite red, she mentioned it to the surgeon on the next visit and
he stated his surgery was right under the nipple area and that it
was just probably part of the healing process. She also mentioned
it to the oncologist after a few weeks because it had not improved
and he said talk to the surgeon. In the meantime she started her
radiation treatments and on the 6th day of radiation she noticed
there was a small "crusty" area on the areola so today after her
9th treatment she saw the radiologist/onclogist and pointed it out
to him who said patients taking radiation can get this but it
ususally doesn't happen until later in the treatment but he didn't
seem concerned.

My question is .... should she be concerned ? Does this sound
familiar to any of you ladies that had paget's disease ?
