Hello, Welcome to HCM, I am Dr Das.
The radiation therapy is a very hard to tolerate. The symptoms you described is just the sign of this intolerance.
What you have to do is just give the patient a good nursing care, a good balanced nutritious diet, and multivitamin and antioxidant agent to fight with immune comprised state.
Regards.
