I had 25 rounds of radiation after my endometrial cancer surgery in 2020. I went along with whatever the doctor said and never questioned the oncologist/surgeon,radiologist/hemotologist. Now that I am more knowledgeable I would never have radiation again. It was brutal while having it and all these years later I have late side effects that have been very difficult to live with.
I had recurrent endo cancer earlier this year with 6 rounds of chemo and keytruda and finished up in May. Pet scan showed all clear and had another petscan in Nov. Next one is Feb.21. I will be on maintenance as the very tiny cells were impossible to remove. As you all know,treatment after the first time is much more difficult. My vision is poor, as is my hearing.Neuropathy in hands and feet make like difficult and the joint pain is tough.
All of you who have praised radiation have been very fortunate but not every one has the same experience.
