Hi,
This forum is fantastic. It's so nice to know that we are not alone. We visited the chemo doc and the radiology/oncologist yesterday. We are investigating several options. One of them is brachytherapy (as I understand it they implant a radioactive seed directly into the cancer site) and then radition IMRT. Another alternative is cisplatin and IMRT radiation together. Has anyone had brachytheraphy? What are the side effects like from that? By the way, my husband did get some more pain meds and He's trying to take it easy. He's just not the type to not be working. We have our own business and it's very labor (his labor) intensive. He's not doing as much as usual, Thank God. We do have several employees but he also worked right along with them. I think that mentally it's harder for him, and I know that we are only at the beginning and it's going to get worse before it gets better. I am praying for all of you.
