Radiation (Internal radiation): i just started this so i am not sure what side effects, i might have broken ribs as the treatment is being done close to the ribs. since this is a very rare type of cancer, they do not know if this will have any effect on the cells. this radation is being done on the right lung with 3 spots. only 2 spots are being treated.
