It is probably not a bone recurrence as bc that goes to the bone (first) is almost always hormone positive.
This is not a diehard rule as hormone neg does go there but usually not first . Hormone + loves the bones and negative - not so much.
It is just a setback in healing. With low estrogen and everything else (including the rads) that will be slow to heal. But... you need to know how the healing is going and maybe some bone hardeners and Calcium with Vit D are in order?
Love to you
