Pain after only one radiation treatment?

0 Recommendations

Hello everyone, my hubby (EXSCLC) has finished his chemo (6 rounds) and started radiation treatments today. The doctor there said he may have side effects after the third or fourth week but on the way home he was very dizzy, then when we got home he was extremely fatigued and nausea set in as well. He says his food has no taste and his legs and arms feel like rubber. Right now he is setting on the side of his bed saying he is exhausted but cant sleep. He is freezing one minute and sweating the next. Has anyone had this after only one treatment? His WC count is low and he goes tomorrow after radiation to get a shot to boost those. Could that have caused this? We go back tomorrow but I was wondering what you all have to say about this turn of events. Thanks for listening. Lucy
