I’m a Radiation Therapist and so have had extensive education about how radiation works in the body as well as working with patients every day. It only affects your immune system in the same way that anything that is taxing on your system does. It takes a lot of energy for your body to heal.

Katrinal123, could you tell us more about what radiation can do, all of a sudden I have to
have a tooth pulled, my back started hurting, I have had radiation 2 times, once 10 years
ago and now I just finished in Jan. No one told me about any side effects, I think all of us
would like to no.
Thank you,
