Seriously tell him you're afraid of undoing all the good that has been done - I would continue the treatments up to surgery!! I imagine the government is paying for the dives so continue. I've had the same number ofrad treatments you've had - ORN is scary!! I'm just very surprised they didn't coordinate better - is your surgeon at the same hospital?
Good luck! Hope everything goes well
