with 10 rads done and 23 left and 1 out of 6 chemo done the first 2 weeks went great. No nausea and didn't need the pills. Mouth sores started on the 3 hour trip home. Will remember to have the soda and salt water in the car this week. No terrible fatigue yet, been too busy for that. My husband is a Pastor so week-ends are busy when we are home. He is still speaking which is wonderful even though he lost a lot of his voice after the first surgery. Peg and port are scheduled for Tuesday. The doctors sure have different opinions on this. Wish he could pass on it but better safe than sorry.
