Thanks Susan, I asked my RO about the amount of RT that I was receiving b/c I was concerned that it was enough "juice". I am having IMRT for 39 treatments, the last 14 are a boost to my voice box only. He dropped off my lymph nodes after 25 treatments. I have been able to eat basically anything I want the whole time and doc thinks that is one of the reasons I am handling the treatments so well. I do have a very high pain thresh hold . I have actually gained 5 lbs. Every week I think this is the week I will hit the floor and now I am running out of weeks. This is a good thing !
