  Ususally, the side effects fade after treatment ends. But, you should talk to his doctors. Maybe they can do something.

Radiation (External radiation ): Vomiting and stomach pain. My husband was so weakened from radiation that he could hardly walk. Couldn't eat anything solid for 2 days. On the 3rd day with the addition of zophran, was able to eat some toast.
