Well..

Radiation treatments three different times, see attached clinical history.

Each treatment (69 total...) was done by the same radiologist.

I drove myself to and from each treatment.

During the last one, SBRT, my wife asked my radiologist "shouldn't I be coming to his radiation treatments to drive...!?" My radiologist's smiled, her response, "Kevin, no, he's fine...!"

Then again, during SRT I drank regular coffee and still had a Manhattan or two to close out the evening...

As others have indicated, your biggest challenge in driving to your appointments may be bladder management!

Study of one...

Kevin

Thanks for the information. Bladder issues, fatigue and sleep are my biggest concerns.
I hope it's OK to down a few beers during the Super Bowl.
