Nausea and taste disturbance?

in Radiation Therapy - Before, During, and After

I've been having radiation for left breast ILC, which has included all the surrounding lymph nodes - axillary, supraclavicular and internal mammary.

Increasingly I am noticing nausea which comes and goes in intensity, together with that miserable metallic taste that I had in chemo. I also have a slight sore throat and sometimes can't swallow things. My RO adjusted the beam so that the throat problems haven't got any worse, but I still have the nausea etc.

Did anyone else have that? I don't think there's anything I can do about it, just looking for empathy I suppose. Poor me!!! hahaha!!!
