Thanks again for your responses! I think that I might not have made my self clear completely clear. I would never want to be pregant DURING treatment. I was just wondering about my rad onc, comment that I should wait a year after radiation treatment because of possible genetic defects from the radiation. (I will not be doing any Chemo)However, all of your reponses about how long it takes to get back to good health after radiation have been very helpful. I was not prepared that it may take me more than a couple of months to be feeling better. I want to go into it will a possitive attitude, but being realistic about my expectations ia also really good.
