I am sorry you had a putz rad onc! I wonder why some people choose healthcare as a career.....
I know you know as much as possible about the situation (darn that Dr. Google) but what you need to do is find peace. What will get Becky her much deserved peace?
Some possibilities I can think of:
* second and maybe third opinion now about risks of no rads on that side and where to go from here?
* BRCA test? (have you had one?)
* consider bilateral recon?
* acknowledging you had aggressive treatment and the stats are on your side and you can really being at peace as is?
* full denial mode (kind of a nice place to be, I am pretty much there now..)
Of course some of these are radical (in some opinions ) and some are not. None are easy for sure.
I would drop the putz like a hot rock.
Best wishes for good answers for you friend....
