Hi
On January 6th I will go through Panendoscopy and left neck dissection, and depending on outcome of the surgery I may have to get radiation therapy. From reading the experiences of others it (RT) seems to be a rough process. My question is will I have to miss work during the whole course of RT?

I want to know so that If needed I cab save my vacation time from this year in case I have to miss work.

Thanks
