Will I be able to drive myself to radiation treatments?

I live in rural area and drove 2 hours one way for 44 treatments. A little fatigue at end but managing bowel and bladder was at times challenging. Good luck.

Wow! your drive is twice as long as mine and so was the number of your treatments. that's a load off my mind. I hope I can complete my treatments while minimizing the side effects.
thank you!

Welcome, @pnb. How long ago did you complete treatment? How are you doing now?

Thanks for reply.
I am half way through my 20 treatments. My bladder has not been an issue, managing my bowel has. I am experiencing frequent bowel movements with soft, watery stool. I taking Imodium AD. Hope it helps.
