So I think that I am starting to feel the side effects of the radiation. I have a sore throat, although I am hopeful that it is only because we were sleeping with the window open. I am still so afraid of pain that I am determined to put off the side effects for as many days as possible.
My favorite foods like cereal, pretzels and pizza are starting to hurt going down, it almost feels like I am trying to swallow a big glob of peanut butter. I will have to start being creative with my meals, like pizza in a blender...? I just have to remember that it is only for a short time.
I went to the fair yesterday and bought some local honey - supposed to help the immunity and then I went to Target and stocked up on throat lozenges and advil.
One funny side effect that no one told me about is that I would have the mesh marks on my forehead and chin from the mask. I actually didn't really notice it, except that the admin. at work had been looking at me funny all week and finally she asked if I was wearing a hat to bed, hahaha, I kinda' didn't answer her, but I guess I will have to think of something.
I thought that my voice was sounding great this morning and even asked a friend at work, "don't I sound good?".... he really hesitated and said I sound better.. but not too good...
