Thank you for your thoughtful and reassuring comments. The protocol your husband is following is similiar to the one we have….labs prior to each infusion, 2 scans after the first infusion, and a 3 week office visit after each infusion with the radiation oncologist.
I have a lot of concerns about the impact of the radiation, but, everything I was told by the medical folks here mimic what you are saying! Coincidentally, I had read Colleen’s post the other day. She reaffirmed all of this. After reading about folks using the Geiger counter, I asked about this and I was told, as Colleen had noted, that this can cause a lot more anxiety for folks who use them. Since my anxiety is already high, I will not be purchasing one,
I feel fortunate to have found this group and will reach out here, if and when, I need to hear from folks who knowledgeable and understanding!

Thanks to all of the wonderful information I gained since my first post, I feel much more at ease as we begin the Pluvicto journey. I hesitate to post this, however, because it sounds so simple, but, I am in my “overthinking “ mode with this issue. At the risk of embarrassing here it is….. how did you handle the dishes during the 3 and 7 day periods. I know they have to be washed separately. Did you put them in the dishwasher after each use or accumulate them for a day and then wash them separately? I was thinking of buying paper products, but I am trying to eliminate BPA products, etc, which most of those have. Even without the BPA’s, there are other chemicals involved!
Any advice is appreciated.
