I was diagnosed with Invasive Lobular Carcinoma, stage 1-A April 2023. Had a lumpectomy and 5 double treatments of radiation. Has anyone had their breast look like it has stretch marks after the surgery and treatment. I am on a harmony blocker (Letrozole 2.5 mg) any help will be appreaciated.

Hi Gail, I am having a lumpectomy for lobular cancer next Friday and if pathology comes back okay, I will have radiation too. I will let you know if I have the same side effects from radiation.

I did not have any stretch marks after radiation for ILC.

Worth a call to the Radiation oncology nurse as she can give a quick answer and then you would know.
