Hi.. Surgery is over - I've meet with an oncologist and a radiation oncologist so now I'm into week three of radiation treatments - things are going OK.
Is it all in my head or should I push to have a nausea issue dealt with? I am also having shoulder pain, left side where treatment is being done, this is continued weakning of the shoulder with no injury to that area. My cancer was Stage 1, NO, MO.
Since week two of radiation, I've been feeling nauseas. This feeling comes and goes through out the day and into the evening. It is strongest in the morning when I am getting ready for work. shoulder has just gotten worse and worse over the weeks of treatment - it was fine prior to treatments.
Now it could be all anxiety induced, who wouldn't be anxious going through radiation :), when I talked to a doctor within the office, she just told me I was wrong and that radiation treatments don't make you nauseas or cause joint pain. So she did nothing regarding my ill feeling.
Thanks!
