Title: Week Three Update
Post by: KJ on December 06, 2009, 03:53:43 pm

Hi All,
I've just finished with week three of my radiation treatments and wanted to touch base with you all and let you know that I'm doing just fine. I have good days and bad days.  Sometimes this tumor swells and hearing on that side is minimal.  The tinnitus is more pronounced when it is swollen also, but overall everthing is going so well. I haven't even had any noticable headaches and very little dizziness. I have my treatments at the end of my work day and I do notice that I am more fatigued after dinner than usual, but by next morning I'm up and ready to go again.  I'm still so happy that I chose this type of treatment. I won't be finished until December 23rd, so I will drop by occasionally to give you an update.

Thanks for the update.  May your treatments continue to be basically uneventful and produce a positive result with few side effects.
