Hi, Nate,
I have been following your posts and videos. You are getting great advice here and you are not alone. When my husband had just finished radiation, he was at his lowest point and very emotional. Lots of tears released almost uncontrollably at the oddest times. I learned from his surgeon and the nurses that his reaction was not unusual given everything he was bombarded with during treatment. Fear of the unknown is a big one, too. I encourage you to ask your health care team about anything and everything that concerns you. You are NOT a whiner nor a pain in the ass. It is the job and the goal of the Drs. and nurses to help you get well. And they do that best with your assistance. They won't know your concerns unless you tell them what they are.

Keep posting and unloading here. We are here to help.

Big (((((((hugs)))))))
