Learning About Breast Cancer
The best thing to do is go as scheduled. If this is not possible then you should see if it is possible to complete treatment at another center. You should pose this question to your oncologist since no information was given about your breast cancer. For instance, if you are HER-2 positive I would state that it is not in your best interest. My mother has breast cancer and has two residence. To date we have traveled and received treatment at those destinations. We have traveled and received treatment in El Paso, Alabama, Tennessee and Chicago. Hope this helps

I also was diagnosed in Jan.2012 and was getting ready leave on a month long trip the middle of Feb. My doc said go ahead and have fun we will get to the radiation when you return. I started the 2nd wk of April. I was diagnosed with DCIS.
