Back to Radiation- part 2

[MMMP]

Just wanted to share my photo from radiation- getting my left lymph node blasted to kill the cancer that has caused me to lose the mobility and circulation in left arm- just finished 2 weeks with I week to go- seeing improvements!!! Off my pain meds!!! Will need to start more Chemotherapy but am enjoying my break- get to keep my mask at end-

Good for you! Glad those rays are zapping those bad cells!

How are you doing, Nancy? Are you feeling well again?

[nstonerocks in reply to rubyc1234]

I am doing biweekly chemo. Not so sure it’s working but will see with scans. I am feeling better. Some struggles Eno. We all want to be stable as long as possible. I had 5 good years. This has been a hard 9 months and I am not stable but hoping to get there albeit on chemo. Praying for the next great drug. Thanks for asking💕

I always look to you because you had lung involvement and that is what I started with. After a year and a half of Xeloda to stabilize things I was put on Ibrance and Letrozole in December

I should think with all their chemos they can find something which works for you. I pray that the scans will provide good news.

Aren't we the lucky ones ? We get to experience what its like having a mask fixed to our face/head.

I'm pleased you're doing well after the radiotherapy. So am I. We made it through and came out the other end

Those masks terrify me. Mine was fitted to the top of my shoulders and I had such claustrophobia they had to unfasten me from the table. I’m glad the radiation is working for you. 👏🏻👏🏻

MMMP,

I have never seen one of those. I am so happy it is working. You need a mannequin to put that mask on when you are done. Blessings, Hannah

Glad you are getting relief!

I’m so glad you aren’t needing your pain medication. You have to have a good result after wearing that mask! I’ve not seen one before so thanks for the heads up in case I ever do! Elaine
