Welcome your to our forum JeanetteH.
Sorry to hear that your husband developed a sore throat and a cough while going through his radiotheraphy treatment.
I'm afraid I won't be able to tell you if this is normal but if you want do feel free to phone our cancer nurses when you have a minute and ask this question, their telephone number is 0808 800 4040 and the line is open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.
I hope your husband feels better.
Best wishes to you both,
