Welcome Katrina

You have come to the right place. There is a lot of valuable information here. The people are all warm, caring, compassionate and knowledgeable.

I sent you 2 E-mails and 1 private message to assist you.

Could you tell us a little more about your type of cancer and what your treatments were? This would give us more insite and would better able us to give more accurate answers.

I am about to begin IMRT so I can not comment on some of your questions. Use the search engines I explained in my E-mail to you.

One symptom you have, the mucous, seems to be hanging around longer than usual from what I have read here.

If you desire you may want to replicate this post in the "Introduce Yourself" forum.

Keep asking any questions you have. They will be answered. Your questions have been written about many times here. Use the two search engines.
