Hi April

glad to hear you're doing well! I do have side effects but they're more annoying than life changing. I can eat everything but some things are harder eg salad. I'm slower eating. I still have remnants of food left when I finish eating, but it goes with a sip of water - or actually just with time actually, as I do seem able to clear it just not as fast. I have some pain in my jaw from the bone marrow edema (from the RT), and my neck is a bit stiff. I also sometimes have excess saliva when talking, as I'm not swallowing it in the usual way. Much better than not enough saliva that's for sure!

I had a baseline scan at 10 weeks post treatment ending, they then compared my recent scan against that. They could then see that scar tissue was just scar tissue etc, as it hadn't changed in size.

Yes I am thinking more about the baby now, especially after passing the 1 year mark. I've just joined a couple of groups on FB for women who've had or are trying to have babies after cancer, so hoping to find some support there. I've also been doing a lot of reading on if it increases risk (general finding of most studies seems to be no). How about you?
