Thank you so much for your update and the info. You are most definitely in my prayers. Is that pretty typical post radiation to be so tired? I am pretty sure that GK will be Dr. Demonte’s choice of treatment for my tumor. We go for imaging mid June.
Many prayers and thank you for sharing.

Sorry didn’t respond sooner. I do think it’s typical to feel tired - it had been for me that way on each GK.
I also have some loss of hair as well. The only other condition I have is an under active thyroid, Graves Disease. I am on medication for that and tendency is a bit of hair loss as well, but this GK has me losing a bit more hair.
Just to clarify I am 73, so may that and my thyroid cause my tiredness more than another person - could be, not sure.
Good luck in June if your doc suggests you have GK, my prayers and positivity are with you. Let me know how you do.👍🙏🤞
