By the time I was at the end of my treatments, the time I was there was considerably longer than when I first started. To me I thought as treatments progressed they were extended. Im interested in hearing what your techs have to say about this. Im much too far out since rads finished to always remember all the details. Chemo brain is a very real thing!!!
