The six week procedure is now completed. My lower lip has "sunburn" and they tell me it should start to clear up in a week or so. My mouth is aggravated by spicy foods and mint toothpaste, but I eat well and have not lost weight.

There appear to be two reactions to the infusion; 1) Small "paper" cuts on my fingers. 2) My body temp seems to be lower and I'm wearing more sweaters and fleeces than ever before.

None of the many predictions of fatigue etc. etc. that had the potential to slow me down, ever came to pass. I know that it is important to warn people of any potential reaction that may happen, and I'm glad to say that in my case they just didn't come to pass.

I never did learn how many Grays of radiation I received.
