"Morbidity" (side effects) after 1 week

Today marked my 7th treatment. We go 5 days a week and have the weekends off.

Everybody always wants to know about "morbidity", aka side effects, during treatment. The reported side effects have been only the following, none of which I have yet experienced:

  • Diarrhea
  • Burning sensation while urinating
  • "Sunburn" on hips where protons go in.
  • Fatigue

I am happy to report none of those have happened to me. Hoping the exercise will keep the fatigue away, which I understand is the most common issue.
