To be sure everyone's reaction to radiation is different. I completed my 7 weeks of radiation last May 27th. I'm doing very well now but it was NOT pleasant. You can read my blog (http://benscancerfight.blogspot.com) from about mid April until the end of May (plus a few weeks after) for a full play-by-play of my fun. But you WILL get through it. Good luck.

Diagnosed in March 2011. Treatment ended May 28, 2011. Back of tongue cancer with one lymph node(stage 4). Feeding tube 5 - 2011, to 9 - 2011. Some saliva and taste. Eating most foods; meat, fish and dry foods not so well. Swallowing pretty normal otherwise. Doing well now. The future? Who knows.
