Hi John, my brother's radiation finished 6 months ago and we cannot believe where that time has gone. He found it quite tough. The next few weeks may be difficult for you, but you'll blink and it will be behind you. I think the hardest thing for Simon was the constipation that was caused by painkillers (Fentanyl). It was very distressing, so keep up the water and if you end up on painkillers, be proactive and prevent the REAL Big C ever happening!

Take note of Christine's recommendation on water - it made a huge difference to Simon - he tried to drink 3 litres a day, and I'm sure it was a big part of him coping with the treatment. Si also added lemon juice to the water. Best of luck to you.
