While you are waiting for the mask, have you got an appointment with your dentist to get a thorough dental check up? This is important as post radiation dental problems are common. Another thing you might want to do is to eat all your favorite foods now. It is likely that you will lose some of your taste and may not be able to eat a proper meal for a while once treatment starts. Please keep us posted.
