After you heard your diagnosis of "cancer" you probably had a million questions going through your mind all at once. This is a huge endeavor that you and your loved ones are going to go through for the next months or years of your life. It is important to know all the little details for each treatment so you can know what to expect when it comes. Here are a few things to help you prepare for radiation at a cancer treatment institute in Fairhope, AL. Get Comfortable Life is too short to stress too much. It can be scary to experience each new treatment as it comes, and so for your radiation appointment, try to get as comfortable as possible. Wear clothes that you can relax in and that are easy to remove. Make sure you don't have too many accessories to remove. Bring a blanket and comfortable socks if you find that you have a hard time staying warm through treatments. Get Busy Radiation doesn't typically take too long, but being busy will help you pass the time. Bring a book, Sudoku, crossword puzzles or anything else that will keep your mind and your hands busy. Or you can always bring a friend or family member who will be able to keep you talking and distracted from what is going on. Get Insight Many cancer patients find that their appointments are a good time to focus inward and meditate. Have questions in mind before you come to your appointment and be very aware of your feelings. You can even bring a journal to track your feelings on your journey. If you have any other questions about your radiation treatment, call your doctor or contact your cancer treatment institute in Fairhope, AL, before the day of your appointment arrives.
