Radiation is going well

Today was number 7 of 30. So far so good but with radiation the symptoms build as you go. I have no redness yet which is good, the Dr. was not sure how I was going to react since I am a bit fair skinned. Other than getting burnt the radiation could cause some fatigue.

I am still real tired and achey. I have heard that the effects of chemo can last 6 months to a year after the last treatment. My joints hurt pretty bad when I do to much. I have also been pretty emotional lately. Yet again another side effect of the chemo, I am extremely irritable. It doesn't help that Hunter has been sick and SUPER cranky the last week.

I had my port out two weeks ago and the incision is healing nicely. The area is still tender but it is now much easier to sleep on my stomach. It was so awkward with the port in to lay on my stomach.

My hair is growing back a little bit. It is very fine and the top of my head is all white. YEAH shows how much gray I really have LOL.

um not sure what else to tell you about, thanks for reading
