Should I Feel Any Different?

I had my second radiation treatment today. Again, I lay on the table and got irradiated with x-rays and the general feeling was about the same as having nothing happen at all.

Today's treatment was the first that did not involve any simulations or marking or anything else. I got there a couple of minutes late, at around 8:50 a.m. (acccckkkkkk!! Morning) and was out of there by about 9:05.

I did put some moisturizer on the right side of my face. I am not sure why I did this, but I figured that maybe it would offset the dry skin/sunburn side effect I am supposed to get. I have also found myself tugging at the hair over my right ear, as if I am checking to make sure it is still attached. It is, but it won't be if I keep tugging at it.

And so it goes.

Tomorrow, I have a day off for Thanksgiving and then I get a third treatment on Friday morning. Then five treatments next week and five the week after and we shall see what we shall see. And with any luck, we will not see double.
