FICTION
I will live longer if I get a mastectomy.
Breast cancer
is in my family so I need a mastectomy.
If I get a mastectomy I will definitely not need radiation.
I have positive
lymph nodes so I need a mastectomy.
After mastectomy I have no breast so my cancer cannot come back in that area.
Radiation will make me bald and/or I will be radioactive.
