Re: Can radiation & chemo cause abdominal/stomach pain?

I'm not sure about adhesions & stuff but my husband ended up with thrush. Couldn't eat for 3 wks with bad stomach cramps. Just check his mouth. Surely they would do that in hospital but I'm not so sure anymore. They give my husband iv fluconazol & cramps stopped immediately

Re: disability

We actually went in & asked. They said if it goes well you can go back to work. I think they give you a year (2 I think) after starting work to make sure you can. If you decide you can't you are just still on disability. If you make over a certain amount of money they just don't send you as much...
