Start date

Jeff has completed most of his tests and was able to see the endocrinologist yesterday. Because the radiation will be so close to the pituitary gland, they are worried about what that might do to Jeff's hormone levels and such. He will complete blood work on Monday and get a base line of where his hormone levels stand currently and if any symptoms arise during treatment, the doctors will be able to better tell what is normal and abnormal for Jeff. With this last appointment completed, Jeff is on the radiation schedule! His first day of radiation is the 15th and will continue every weekday until the 27th of September. That's less than a week before Jeff's radiation journey begins.
