Hi Simple Gifts,

FWIW, in the last few weeks of treatment, I couldn't speak at all. My throat had swelled so much that talking was impossible. I worked half days while getting treatment. I had a lot of support, people driving me and such. However, due to meds, morphine, oxycontin, fentynol, etc. I was not very effective. Hopefully, you have a close assistant that can help you. Just make sure you have a plan. I am two years out, and still get tired easily in the afternoon, but am gradually getting my full strength back.

Good Luck
