I am starting Palliative Radiation next week. Hoping to lessen the pain I am in from these tumors. Just wanted to see if anyone else has been through this and has any experiences.

What part of your body is being radiated? And how long?

Good luck, I hope it is successful in reducing your pain.

I had radiation in the rectum only (14+ plus yrs ago), it was successful for me. And I am aware it can be successful in other parts of the body, especially bone mets. I hope (and pray) it is successful for you too.

All the best,
