Don't expect to have all these symptoms after treatment- side effects depend on the treatment you have and your health. Some treatments have few if any side effects and treatments do not effect everyone the same way. Do ask your medical team about side effect questions and what to do before treatment. Have medical contact information (telephone numbers, etc.) readily available in case serious effects come on suddenly. Books  Living
