Today was my fourth radiation treatment and the last one for the week. So far, by the grace of God, I have not felt much physical effect from the treatments. My energy has remained the same, but I'm told the side effects might not show up until a couple weeks into treatment.
The treatments themselves are very short. They last only about 5 minutes. I'm in the office about 30 minutes total for each appointment. Once a week, I meet with a nurse and doctor for an examination and discussion of how the treatments are going. Those appointments last a little longer, about 45 minutes.
I took the day off of work today. Before my appointment, I met with my friend, Kim, for lunch. She accompanied me to the appointment afterward and waited in the waiting room for me. It was nice to have her there.
