Half way
Well, I am halfway through my third bout of radiation treatment. Only five more to go.

Hi Tracey
Thanks for your message.
I finished the radiation on my upper spine and left hip about a week and a half ago. Not too many side effects - a bit of nausea (which I always seem to get with radiation) and a dry mouth but that's it. We've changed my treatment to Femara as my last blood test showed that my tumour markers were up (again!). So I've been on Femara for about 9 days now. Haven't noticed any new side effects yet. Fingers crossed that this one will do the job for me. I go back to see the oncologist in about 5 weeks. Will probably be too early to tell if it's working then but maybe, hopefully, my markers may go down a little!!
How about you? How are you feeling? I seem to remember you go for your next scans next week? I hope it's all going OK for you.
Thinking of you.
