In the beginning I had no side effects. Radiation effects started 10 days on. The burn sensation due to the location of part of my tumor kicked in. As well as the tiredness from both chemo and radiation. Make sure he drinks likes of fluids. I drank skittles sugar free Kool aid instead of water got boring 12 oz bottles i bought at walmart. Also carnation instant breakfast. Hope you are both doing ok. God Bless! 🥛🥤🧃

I had no side effects till my 7th Chemo. Was so fatigued that they skipped it and gave me fluids 1 1/2 years after treatment I still have fatigue just not as bad as it was during treatment. Immunotherapy gave me extreme joint pain after treatment. Helped with Steroids

I did not have side effects either initially. As it went on I definitely felt fatigued and the very last week had bad heartburn for two or three days. I hope he continues to feel well.
