@terradean I'm so glad that @colleenyoung provided sage advice on how chemotherapy affects DNA and what the mRNA vaccine does to cells and does not do to DNA. @marys1956 thoughts about use of non-drowsy Claritin is helpful although your latest message that Benadryl is working for you is very encouraging.

I apologize for going silent for a few days. I have yet another respiratory illness. It's such a terrible year for that, right? My next cancer surveillance appointment at Mayo is next week and I have to do what my primary care physician says: rest, drink lots of liquids.

I'm keeping fingers and toes crossed for you and hoping the pain subsides.

@naturegirl5 I’m new to this site & was reading your post on brachytherapy however I couldn’t find your post on your treatment experience, long term effects etc. I have endometrial cancer stage1a2, had total hysterectomy all labs were clean however oncologist recommended 4 brachytherapy sessions. The therapy is scaring me more than the surgery. My first BT treatment is
Dec 27,2024. I don’t know how it will go. Radiation oncologist stated I will receive dilator to use after treatment. I apologize if this is not the correct spot for this question.
I wish everyone the best!
