recovery after 35 radiation treatments

I know it feels just awful right now but each week you will see some improvement, just hang in there. Hopefully Juven will work well for you. My husband had his tonsil with tumor removed last Wed, it`s not an easy procedure and now he is facing 6 weeks of radiation and possibly 3 chemo treatments as there is a tumor in one lymph node. It`s ok to be upset about all that is going on with you , try to remember that this is temporary , you will get better and you are cancer free.

I hope since Thanksgiving is 6 weeks away maybe I can eat something by then. I am doing all the health team told me but feeling this poorly after all this time has me deeply frustrated and upset. The pills, dry mouth, mouth sores and the constipation just are over whelming. I am 69 and even being a man this situation and pain and the way this has impacted my life brings me to tears just so hard. The only comfort I have is working part time since I can work from home. I question every day why I gave in to this procedure. I have tried to be more positive which is very difficult joining this support group was a step for me. I have to gain weight back since I have dropped 20 pounds. I am going to adopt making milk shakes, taking protein powder and eating canned soup when possible.
