During radiation symptoms

Cldroberts

Hello, I'm having a lot of symptoms from radiation but my Onc doesn't believe that the symptoms are related to the treatments. She said I haven't been in treatment long enough to develop problems (10 treatments) I have experienced:

*severe headaches

*fuzzy headed for an hour after treatment

*joint swelling and pain

*coughing with phlegm

*severe chest pain and vomiting (trip to the ER and was diagnosed with radiation induced pleurisy)

*very very tired but rest doesn't alleviate the tiredness



Has anyone else experienced these side effects DURING treatment?

I experienced the fuzzy head symptom, but it came on later in the day as I got more tired. Felt like I couldn't process information & I could not always understand what people were saying. I attributed this to fatigue more than anything else. Today is #25/28 and I had to take a leave from work due to the fatigue.

I did not experience any of the other symptoms.
