Today's my last day of Radiation Treatment. I've already gone to my morning session so I have just the afternoon session remaining. Tomorrow, then, I get my 5FU Pump off for the last time then I'll be done with treatment.
No dancing or celebrating going on, though. Since my good day I had on Tuesday, things have gone downhill. There's been little nausea and no vomiting, though, so I have that to be thankful for. But fatigue levels are way high, my mouth, tongue and throat are plenty sore and I'll not get into the grossness involved with everything that's going on.
Had an Appointment yesterday with the Physician's Assistant at the Oncologist's office. She spent a good bit of time trying to manage my expectations for the coming weeks. Told me not to expect to get feeling much better too soon. She said it COULD be 4-5 weeks before I make significant progress on the feeling better front. Geez, I hope not. I've been counting on eating SOMETHING at Christmas Dinner. At least Mashed Potatoes and Gravy or something like that.
I guess time will tell.
