..half way there

It's been three weeks of radiation. I THINK I'm doing ok, at least that's what the doctor/nurses tell me. NO burning...but that could still come later on. A bit tired, but that's ok, my scheduled appts are late afternoon. SO many nice women I've met. All of us are in the same boat.
Was on vacation this past week, scheduled my radiation around my being home and they were very accommodating. Opted out of a day at the casinos fearing germs and smoke.
The cough is still there. I have contacted a pulmonary specialist so I'm hoping to get in to see him soon. Also decided it's time to get back to the pain clinic about this sciatic nerve that acts up at all the wrong times. That's in a week or so.
SO much to do..so little time to do it in.
Just beaming me up each day!!

..beam me up!

RADIATION HAS BEGUN...
Well, I decided to make all my appointments for 5 p.m. thinking that's a great time, everyone is home making dinner, piece of cake, not too many folks there since the center closes at 6, last appointment! NOT TO BE.
Went in on Monday, February 1 for my 'preliminary' which means they take films of every angle AND they gave me a 'new' tattoo..apparently the 'old' ones weren't in line with where they had to radiate!
Back on Tuesday, Feb. 2 for my treatment. FOUR other women in the waiting room ahead of me...that should have told me ...'someting's wong' here...since one woman said her appointment was 4:15; another was 4:30; another was 4:45..me at 5. Yup. It was 6 pm before I even got taken in to the radiation room! Then a few more films and **Z*A*P**! DONE! Out of there by 6:20; get dressed ...see you tomorrow!! REALLY wish maybe they could've called and said the computers in Boston were down, we're running a bit late...
(missed my nail appointment!!)
So I will go back on Weds., Thurs., Fri...have a weekend reprieve and then back for 5 more weeks!
BEAM ME UP, SCOTTY!!!
