Hi,
Our radiation Oncologist told us my husband will return to normal eventually, after he has healed from the treatment. He said his disease is curable and was caught early due to a small spot, no tumor, and his lymph node would shrink and not spread.I am confused as to the drastic measures survivors must endure after treatment? Its very scary what I am reading on the forum. I was told once his 64 treatments are done, we are done. Then he will need follow ups, PET scans etc, but nothing more. We were told he would eat again and his taste buds would recover. All that he might have to deal with is some dry mouth. Can someone clarify?
