I have had a recurrence to the chest wall. The tumors are in the skin. I am stable every place else. I have to be very thankful for that. It was recommended that I do hypothermic radiation. It was suggested that this was a better alternative than surgery for right now. Has anyone had this done? What was your experience and at what facility did you have it? I know many hospitals do not do it.
Thanks for your input!
