I started my radiotherapy course today. Here’s the “before” photo, warts and all :-) I’ll post a new one each week to document any changes. The most obvious side-effect will be to my skin; I anticipate ending up with a very bad case of sunburn. However, I’m told this will only begin to appear after two weeks.
Just in case it’s not obvious: the treatment is to the right side of my neck, the one with the scars.
Hang in there, Gerv! You’ll be in my prayers.
Any chance you could post the picture of the mould they made to hold your neck? Or is that not something you could take a picture of (for example, the hospital keeps it there, etc.)? Sounds like an interesting device.
That’s good you’re taking a before shot- I’m sure others that would go through a similar treatment would find this helpful.
Hang in there and God bless!
I’ll try and get a picture of the mould.
Good luck, Gerv. We’ll be thinking about you!
Take a look at this web site. http://www.radiotherapydamaged.me.uk.Don‘t want to frighten you but Radiotherapy treatment is dangerous and ‘They’ don’t tell you all the side effects.
