Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 10,507 Likes: 8 | Welcome to OCF! I will try my best to assist you but I have some questions that will help me to help you.
What exactly are you going to suspend?
Radiation?
How many have you done?
How many are left?
Im fairly certain it is NOT a good idea to suspend your treatments. Just because you feel the lump is gone and the swelling has gone down does not mean the cancer is completely gone. All it takes is for one teeny tiny cell to remain for the cancer to return. If your havent finished treatments then there is a very high chance that there is still some cancer left. Cancer is not always visible to the naked eye as it is the size of a cell.
Please reply with answers to my questions and I will attempt to help you further. I know it stinks and is very difficult. Ive dont it too. But in order to get thru this and go on to live a good healthy life you may need to suffer thru the rest of your treatment plan.
