  • Hello and thank you for coming back to us Meaney,

    Your radiology appointment will be with a radiology consultant who is a doctor that specialises in radiotherapy. They will go through how this treatment may help you in your current situation with your Neuroendocrine cancer.

    Side effects depend on where the radiotherapy is treating in the body. But tiredness is very common wherever the treatment is focused.

    Hopefully, you will get more information soon, but in the meantime if you want to give us a call on our helpline to go through anything the number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040. The lines are open from 9 am till 5 pm, Monday to Friday.

    Take care,

    Sarah.
