After radiation and mastectomy (right side stage 3 breast cancer diagnosed in september 2013) i had osteomyelitis in the sternum. My oncologist thought it was bone metastasis at first but an attempted biopsy revealed a sternum (bone) infection. The infectious disease dr at (b)(6) said that he sees this with pts who have undergone radiation. The tissue / bone is more susceptible to infection.
