I was told that they want you to be well healed from surgery, but did not want to wait more than about 6 weeks to start. For me, the start date was up to me within the bounds of the radiation facility's scheduled openings. To just get it over with, I started about 3-1/2 weeks after surgery - which I thought was pretty quick, overall.

Sounds like your schedule would be about a month from surgery, assuming you start within a few days of your appointment, which is right in the range of what my doctors were hoping for.

Good luck.

How soon you guys started therapy after the surgery?
Is it something that needs to be done as soon as possible? Like same month?
I had surgery September 27 and I have an appointment with radiation oncologists on October 24.
