Radiation (External radiation ): Skin burns were intense which broke open and had to be treated with antibiotic cream. Otherwise activities of daily living were no problems.

Drug or Chemo Therapy (Targeted therapy): The third through seventh days after each infusion cycle were rough - felt as if I was 100 yrs old and tottered around like a small breeze would snap me in half and knock me over.

Procedure or Surgery (Double Mastectomy): Horrible reaction to anesthesia (per usual...) was worse than any other part of the surgery or recovery. Unable to speak above a choked whisper and unable to put sentences together with back pain that was excrutiating.
