Started my radiotherapy treatment this week. I have had 4 'nukes' out of 15 so far. There isn't much to say about it really. Obviously there is no pain or discomfort (yet!!!). My arm aches afterwards for a couple of minutes, but that's all. They fire the laser from 3 different angles. I have a 30 second blast and then a short 10 second blast from each angle. The area covered is slightly red at the moment and covered in pen marks. I have so far resisted the temptation to do the ' I expect you to die Mr Bond' line but I doubt I will get through the whole treatment without doing it at least once. My hair is growing back nicely now. Its looking a bit curly though, which is slightly distressing as I am far too old to have cute curly hair.
I have to see the doc next week , when he will check for any skin problems that may arise. Will fill in the details then. Until next time............KEEP CHECKING!!!!!!!
