Radiation

October 20: Today, I will have my 9th Radiation treatment. So far, so good. Every day I come home from treatment, I check off one more day closer to being finished.

Overall, I am very tired. I believe this has been the results of the cumulative chemo, not the Radiation, yet. I was also "knocked down" with an upper respiratory infection. The doctor cautioned me that it may take some time to shake given my immune system.

Radiation Underway

October 12: So far, 2 Radiation treatments can be checked off with 31 to go. After my treatment today, I followup Dr. Young for my weekly checkup. I started physical therapy again yesterday and the good news is that the measurements on both arms are the same. This means there are currently no signs of lymphedemia. Tomorrow is a crazy day with 5 appointments between 7a - 11:45a.

The Komen 5K is October 23. Sign up under Team MC and let's make a difference to fight Breast Cancer!!!
