Hi, angie,

I finished my radiation about 6 weeks ago. It was scary, but not scary enough to not have the treatment. I won't go into a lot of details because teamshrink's description covered my experience quite well. Ask for some anti-anxiety meds. Ativan (lorazepan) really helped me get through it. There are unpleasant side effects of the radiation, but you can get through them. You will find a lot of help with that from the postings on this forum. Good luck, and keep us posted on your progress.
