RAY A Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Good news, I had my last radiation treatment today 14 out of 14. Bad news i feel like cr@p. got a head ach and feel run down. But it could be from my tooth that split and I think is infected. gotta see my denist today. my radioligest (sp?) wants me to start the steroids again. I pray for the day when I feel normal again. the funny thing is i havent been sick from cancer at all, just from treatments for the cancer. I think I need to go home and lay down.

Guest Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Hey Ray, The end of any treatment is a day to celebrate. I bet when you get that tooth fixed, you will feel a whole bunch better. Now each day forward is one day closer to regaining your strength and stamina. Congratulations.

-Cheryl- Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Ray, Sorry you don' feel well today. I was told that the chemo really has an effect on your dental health. Make sure you tell you dentist. They asked me beforr I began chemo if I had any dental problems, and that chemo would be posponed if so. An anti-biotic is something you may need too! Do you have any chemo left? You go home and lie down! Dr's orders! Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karen335 Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Ray, Congrats on the completion of treatments. Hope you get your tooth fixed and you feel better...... Question, before going to dentist should we ask our onc's first? Especially if you have to have one pulled, crowned, drilling causing bleeding, etc..... Please let me know. Thank you, and your posts are fun to read. You have a great sense of humor. God Bless you, Karen ******** Dx'd 3-03 3a Taxol/carbo, radiation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiny Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Onward!! You are still here and fighting the good fight. Hope you're feeling better soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gail p-m Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Glad to hear you're done with raditation. Once you get that tooth stuff done and rest up for a bit, you'll be your old self again!!!!! (By the way, I can sure identify with your feeling fine before the treatments; my 79 year old Dad was living independently and doing a good job of it; now less than 4 months later, well, I just can't begin to describe the changes I've seen). Ray, your a young guy; you'll bounce back but give yourself some time. Congrats on being done!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny G. Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Yeah Ray! I'm sure you're glad to have that behind you. Isn't it the truth about treatments and the cancer doesn't even make you sick. Go figure! Hope you get a break now and get to feeling better again. Jenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
