My radiation finished 2 weeks ago. The next day I had a TIA - mild stroke. I'm fine except for being very very tired and my burns are still healing. I just can't seem to get my head around what's been happening to my body. I want so much to be pain free and back to normal.

Hi KJ, Thanks for your comment. My pain is slowly getting better - guess I'm just impatient. Thanks again. Kim
