    Hi all,

    Here I am, changing my weapons to fight the devil. I am still doing chemo 3 more rounds to go. Along side will be my rad 26 sessions as the doc explained to me. Will have my plannig session this friday. Not sure what to ask about, how will the process be, how long, will it be painfull, does it mean I will get X-Rays or what is it exactly.

    Regarding radiation itself, what are the risks and what should I watch out for and manage during the rad.

    Is rad effective in local treatment to prevent cancer from coming back.

    Appreciate your guidance and support

    Thanks
