    MASK
    Great advice, thanks much. Do you also have your arms secured along side of your legs with a little tension? They do this to me and it too is a little frustrating.

    How are the side effects?

    BEST!!!

    Arms secured...
    Hi Mike, when I was fitted for my mask they had my arms pulled down and secured but I was told this was only done while they were fitting the mask. It helps pull the shoulders down. During all (35) of my radiation treatments I was just told to keep my arms at my side but they were not secured.

    Hope your treatments aren't too harsh, just remember that many others have been through the same thing and survived...and so will you ;-)

    Take care and stay strong,
    Glenna
