Q: Long Term Effects of Radiation

Hello all,

i hope you are well and I wish yo all the best in your lives!

Next.. I have something to discuss and maybe request that everyone post replies to this with your experiences with side effects of radiation therapy.

When I was 6 I had cancer on my left ear and they attacked it by removing part of my ear as well as gave me a year and a half of chemo and 23 treatments of radiation to the area.

I am now 26 and am starting to see some major side effects of something I had but am unsure what would have caused all of this. I had what they called a spinal column stroke 2 years ago and they say there are lesions in my brain and on my spine but refuse to say it is from the radiation. I have all but given up on western medicine as the specialists dont know what is wrong with me and havent told me anything even though they have been testing me with numerous mri scans etc.

I know this sounds obscure but I was told by an energy healer that a friend made me go see that my body is full of radiation and needs to be removed.

Does anyone have any information in regards to long term side effects and such?

Thanks so much for anyones comments or ideas.

Jon
