MegDaane

Hello, MegDaane. I finished my chemo and am about to start radiation. (And intrathecal Methotrexate as a precaution. )Any suggestions to get thru it. I have some Xanax that I plan to take the morning of. I am very nervous about it. I'll be away from home staying in a hotel nearby for 5 or 6 weeks. Most of the time alone.

Welcome to the site. Hope you find it informative and encouraging. Best of luck on your treatment.
