Hi Kelley,
I have to agree with everyone else. There are things that don't start aching and paining until we are recovering from the radiation blast we receive. I think that our bodies are so focused on fighting the radiation other pains seem to fade. (I actually didn't have any back aches for a while)
Mark is also right about the nerve reconnect - our coming back to life? That's what I was told by my doc.
"Radiation - the gift that keeps on giving".
You sound very excvited about your support group -good luck with that.
Take care,
Dinah
