Thanks to all for the replies. I actually had lost 1/4 lb yesterday at the doc. I am still + 2lb since I began treatment. Doc thinks that is one reason I have done so well, I took the whole nutrition thing very seriously and eating anything and everything I want ! LOL In the middle of all this my husband was diagnosed with Peripheral Artery Disease(PAD) and has had 2 stents put in his leg. Another round to go in his other leg. I know I can get through this after seeing what a difficult time so many on this forum have had. The thing that really scares me is a reoccurrence . I am sooo lucky that mine was in my vocal cords and early and I have only required RT.
