I just finished my 2nd week and my Doctor told me the hard part is coming up...just stay strong, eat and drink. He told me to try to shoot for 64oz of liquids per day. After Rad Txs are over he also said a two to three week burnout will happen and about 4 months post tx you'll start to feel better.

best wishes
