I had external beam accelerated partial breast irradiation (radiation 2 times per day for 5 days) after my lumpectomy in Nov. 2012. Just wondering if anyone else had had this type of radiation and their thoughts about it.

I am starting APBI next week. Getting my markers tomorrow, however, I'm only having radiation once a day for five days. Two times per day wasn't even offered.
