No rads after sugery?

Dear All,

Anyone in same boat as me? I was diagnosed in April this year with IDC. I had sentinel node procedure first which showed that the cancer had only reached one node. I had six cyles of chemo and surgury on 30th Sept (lumpectomy with wide excision). Path report after found that I was pCR. There were no cancer cells remaining at all! The original idea was that I would have rads after surgery but after getting this result onc said rads will not be necessary since there is nothing left to target and it would do me more harm then good. Has anyone else had this happen to them? Is it safe not to do rads?

Any advice appreciated.
