i had 7 treatments of radiation left to go and my doctor stopped for a week to have my mask refitted and lasers repositioned as i was loosing so much weight i started to wiggle in the mask. i was upset, but it was a nice break, also didnt make it thru the last chemo treatment because the side effects were so bad. but after the last 7 treatments i can say im done and hopefully cured.last 3 scans have been great. no abnormal activity.
age 29,salivary gland cancer, smoker, non drinker, weekly cisplatin and IMRT daily X 34. Just started treatments.
3/2010 all done with treatments and 3 great scans. life is back to normal pretty much.
