Hello ladies Just a pop in from a Feb starter. Over half way through now and just thinking ahead to radiotherapy. I have to have 20 sessions and drive about 40 mins away. Can you drive after it or are you too tired? How does it compare to chemo? Xxxx Thankyou sal x ... View more

Hi helly Hope you feel better when they finish. I'd check with your nurse just to be on safe side. Around day 8 to ten were a bit more prone to infections and maybe just the injections are working hard boosting your cells. Drink lots fluids and see how you go when they finish. I always feel better when I've had the last one! Xxxxx ... View more
