Not sure what that means but someone described their husband having issues with this as they were undergoing radiation treatments. And has anyone had issues with feeling as if they might choke while in treatment especially when having to be immobilized for certain procedure or treatments. And, has anyone actually been able to work through these kind of treatments-radiation and chemo to be specific? I am a school teacher of second graders and I can't imagine being in the classroom for any of the treatments. My wheels are turning and I thought I would look to the forum so I could tap into your experiences." Thanks Chris
