Frequently Asked Questions

What are the side effects of radiation therapy?

Common side effects include fatigue, nausea, skin irritation, and changes in appetite. Long-term effects may include tissue damage and increased risk of secondary cancers.

How long does it take to recover from radiation therapy?

Recovery time varies by patient, but side effects usually improve within weeks to months after treatment.

Can you be around people after radiation therapy?

Yes, but patients who receive internal radiation (brachytherapy) may need to limit close contact with others for a short time.

Which is harder on the body, chemotherapy or radiation?

Both treatments have different effects. Chemotherapy affects the whole body, while radiation is localized but may still cause fatigue and tissue damage.

How much weight do you lose during radiation treatment?

Weight loss varies depending on the type of cancer, location of treatment, and side effects like nausea or difficulty swallowing.

Can you sleep next to someone after radiation therapy?

For external beam radiation, it is safe. However, for internal radiation therapy, there may be restrictions for a period of time.

What is the success rate of radiation therapy?

The success rate depends on the type and stage of cancer. Many early-stage cancers can be successfully treated with radiation alone or in combination with other therapies.
