MDS and Breast cancer

It is well recognized that breast cancer treatments can be a factor in getting MDS. I am on watch and wait for MDS. This month I was diagnosed with a new breast cancer😂 in the same breast I had cancer 20 years ago.
My oncologist is telling me that I cannot have a second radiation due to previous treatment. He also says that chemo is not an option since I have MDS.
Anyone heard to this challenge.

To further complicate the situation I have no further lymph nodes to help predict whether cancer has spread.

Thoughts?
