Welcome! I'm a nurse myself, and I can definitely relate to your feelings related from switching from the caregiver role to the patient role!!
I am just curious-- if you don't mind sharing, how did you go from a clear PET scan in Sept. to node dissection in November?
I started IMRT the Monday before Thanksgiving-- the good thing about that is I still had some tastebuds for Thanksgiving! I tell my friends I am having radiation spa treatments-- 8 down, 25 to go!
Good luck to you!
