Cheryl,
I am so glad you are starting. It made me feel like I was finally doing something, even though it is not so pleasant. Do you know what your rad treatment plan is? I assume IMRT, and they are concentrating on certain areas.

Yes, enjoy your food, although you might enjoy it for at least the first couple of weeks of TX anyway. My rad technicians were the nicest bunch of people, which was good because it is so scary. Hope you have the same situation.
Anne
