ursol Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I started Stereostatic Radiosurgery treatment to the abdominal area (by the renal artery and adrenal gland area). First treatment was this past friday and I have two more to go. Has anyone else on the board had SRS to the abdomen and what side effects did you go through? I have excruciating pain of the abdomen and now taking painkillers. I have also been vomiting quite a bit. thanks for any input.

SandraL Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Hi Lilly. It is good to hear from you but I am so sorry to hear of your pain and nausea. I have never even heard of SRS so hopefully others will come along that have. Whatever it is I certainly hope that it helps with your suffering. Please take good care and my prayers are with you for successful treatments. Sandra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recce101 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I'm really sorry to hear of your difficulty, Lilly. Unfortunately I have no knowledge or experience with SRS. One thing was not clear to me -- did the bad stomach pain come only after the treatment, or was that part of the reason for the treatment" Aloha, Ned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ursol Posted September 23, 2008 Author Share Posted September 23, 2008 Ned, The stomach pain started before treatment but right sided. The dr.'s are not sure of the cause but said the cancer possibly was causing it. The radiation has added more pain but centered in my abdomen. It is a little different and more painful.
