| 11/22/2005 | Thank you for the reassurance regarding a rash which developed after radiation. I saw my surgeon who discounted a reoccurance of the cancer (subject to biopsy). He did telephone the plastic surgeon who toook one look at the area and said "can you come in tomorrow" (11/23). As well as you, three other Drs considered the possibility of a reaction from the implant following radiation, you will be my constant reference point from now on. | ||
