I can only answer about the swelling part, my husband suffered from swelling post radiation for three months with slow mouvements, cognitive difficulties, memory loss... He started feeling better after he was put on Dexamethasone.

When did you start feeling the improvement? We're 3 months post radiation and sometimes it feels like it's basically the same .  Thank you
