@bobette1 I had radiation therapy for endometrial cancer so my experience will be different from yours. I wanted to share that before the radiation started I had an appointment with the radiation oncology nurse and the doctor. They both explained what would happen and what side effects, if any, I could have. They had suggestions for how to treat any side effects from radiation therapy and how to take care of myself while I was being treated.

Other members @ljchicago @sillywabbit @jeanadair123 @shanbam who have vulvar cancer who may have had radiation therapy or chemotherapy can hopefully provide you with more information on their personal experiences.

Is the appointment you have next Monday with the radiation oncologist? If yes, can you write down your questions before then and talk with them about what to expect?
