I don't know if it was the rads or the Erbitux, but I started hurting some in week 2. It's gonna hurt but gradually improve over time. Like they say, Everything Takes Time no matter what it is. Well at least I say it but I believe in telling it like it is after going thru it. These people told me what to expect and it was appreciated much knowing what I would go thru.
