Lyn, I had skin bx after post-radiation of a year & it healed just fine (Had gotten burn't also). Most docs fear non-healing of a radiated area, so are
hesitant to bx.
I just stopped Gemzar/Carboplatin, (still on Herceptin), worked great ,but my RBC's & Platelets kept dropping and had to be transfused. I took Neupogen for WBC's, also was on Aransp injection every 2wks for RBC's.
I have a breast CA 1.5 cm lump in my R neck that is superficial, surgery planned for next Tuesday. Trying to avoid radiation burns...we'll see how it goes. Keep us informed of your progress. Hugs, Velva
