Read the following article for side effects on radiation. My first partner had a type of skin cancer and what I witnessed was a lot of diarrhea and nausea after the treatments, so please bring your partner with you. And if he can get you an edible that would help with the nausea..

Be careful about getting angry. A friend of mine would turn green when he got mad and would break people. He also grew a body builder body right before he would blow his fuse. Prayers for your treatment.

My aunt had gone through this with her lymph nodes, and they do treat it with radiation, but that’s not necessarily anything to do cancer Ultimately she had them removed.
