Anyone have an idea on what are the effects of radiation after the therapy?

Radiation to the chest and abdomen (belly) may cause swelling and inflammation in the esophagus (swallowing tube), stomach, or intestine. This can cause pain, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. Antacids, sometimes combined with a numbing medicine such as lidocaine, may help relieve pain from an inflamed esophagus.

All the above symptoms you will suffer with .but rather than that you will suffer with hair loss,black spots on the skin.Radiations which doctor use int therapy are very reactive and of high range.
