First Radiation is Done

Well I have now completed two radiation treatments. It really is like getting an x-ray. The whole process of undressing and posing me takes much longer than the radiation itself. I do notice some discomfort under my arm due to a large skin flap that the doctor left for reconstruction. Since it rubs against my arm normally, it is more sensitive than before. I bet this will be a problem in the weeks to come. The staff at Greenspring Station (a Johns Hopkins branch) are wonderful. Tomorrow I go in for both radiation and Herceptin. The good news is that at Greenspring they are in the same building.
