@meka- Hi! Yes it's very common to have shortness of breath and fatigue. It's unfortunate that this wasn't explained to you. Your radiologist should have explained all of this to you. After 6 months when the effects peak it should get better. I was warned to be careful not to strain my lungs and if I exercised to use very light weights. Do you have any more sessions left?

Someone, therapist, reminded me that in less than a year and a half...been diagnosed, had surgery, been tapering off psych drugs, was hospitalized for almost three weeks undergoing ECT treatment and now have had radiation treatment. Um, why rest...
