As far as someone who has your diagnosis, not exactly, but I do have problems resulting from radiation which I had 28 years ago. When I was told that they would treat my endometrial cancer with extensive radiation rather than chemo, I was glad that I wouldn't lose ode my hair. So silly. I have bronchiectsdid snd had another cancer caused by the radiation as well as two skin growths. It messed up my digestive system and I have a dilated esophagus as well as some lung fibrosis. When I saw the surgeon, oncologist and a small bowel gastroenterologist, they all told me, "We don't do that any more." (extensive radiation).It makes me wonder how many of us are still struggling that they did do it to!

Anyway just wanted you to know that there are others of us struggling with the results of long ago radiation treatment. Good luck at your appointment.

Thank you for your comment. Yes there are quite a few of us still out there. Most primary docs don’t know how to deal with us. Do u see a specialist for all ur symptoms? Happy thanksgiving
