My husband is now 7 weeks out from end of IMRT treatment at Moffit Cancer Center in Florida. He seemed to be having a relatively easy time of it through treatment. Had the peg, but never needed to use it. Didn't lose any weight. Drove himself to treatments up through Week 6. At 3 weeks out, rad oncologist said he was doing great, better than average. However, then his father (who had been in a nursing home for a year) became very ill and died and he seemed to stop improving much during the next 3 week period. This week, after more pressure to start the trimonthly dental visits, he had his teeth cleaned. He now has a very sore throat, can't swallow as well as he could last week, and feels just rundown overall. Also, had a f/u visit with his surgeon last week as well and was told he needs to wait a while longer before trying massage therapy for the swelling in his neck. Any thoughts about what could be happening here?
