Has anyone ever had radiation therapy for cancer here??
I was wondering if anyone had links for side effects or could tell me side effects of it? My brother has an abdominal cancer but its spread to other areas and their doing radiation treatment to a tumor on his hip. He can even walk or barely move now after 4 treatments.
I’ve had radiation treatment, but the effects weren’t that fast!
It would depend if it is internal or external treatment and what else is going on in htearea.
After a bout 10 – 15 treatments I had what felt like svere sunburn, which was very painfull. If he is having the treatment on his hip, perhaps his groin has been affected which would be VERY painful and this could be the problem.
Please tell what type of cancer it is and where exactly are they treating.I am a radiation therapist and would be happy to answer any questions that I can.Email is toadrus@yahoo.com
sorry to hear about your brother i wish him health
