Glad to hear you are handling rads so well. Some lucky few sail right thru it without many of the side effects. Those are the ones who pushed with their intake to get 48-64 oz of water and 2500+ calories in every single day. Thats what will make it easier.

Your sense of taste will probably begin to change in week 3 or 4. Even if things taste bad you still must take in 2500+ calories daily. A few weeks after rads is over your taste will slowly begin to return.

Love your sense of humor! Hang onto that as things change during your treatments. Watch out for crowds during treatment and recovery. You may not feel it yet but your immune system is struggling right now and you are much more susceptible to getting sick than you were pre-cancer.
