Fatigue with radiation?
I'm seeing fatigue as a side effect of radiation. How much fatigue should I expect? My job has put up with this entire process, and my boss just asked what he should expect with radiation and I really couldn't answer him.
We also have a facility in Mexico that I haven't been able to get to because my onc. restricted my travel there. During chemo I ate at a salad bar for lunch, and ended up in the hosptital with a 103 (and it was still climbing) temp. that night. It's a nice hospital ... not sure if I would have gotten that level of care and good food on the other side of the border. Any issues with increased chances of infection?
This triathlon is almost over, just radiation and getting my permanent breasts on the TO DO list! I'm an optimist.
