Finally starting to feel normal after treatments. Appetite back, gaining weight and feeling much better. Back to walking 5 miles a day and can swallow without much discomfort. I will have a PET Scan February 27 and meet with oncologist soon afterwards. Surgery a possibility or immunotherapy. Feeling blessed and praying for good news. Thanks for all your support. 💕😊

Sounds very positive indeed - 5 miles a day is very good. If you have surgery, being fit and active beforehand will help your recovery. will keep everything crossed for you.
You’re doing amazingly well! It took me a few years to be able to walk the full distance on a 5K fundraiser. Sending hope that they can go forward with surgery.
IMRT uses photons (X-rays). Proton radiation is not as widely used, mostly because that’s the only machine a hospital may have. Oncologists rarely recommend a radiation type if it’s not available in their hospital.
