  • Hi Sabreboots and welcome to Cancer Chat.

    You can find out about the possible side effects of radiotherapy on our website but if you'd like to have a quick chat about this with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all they can to help.

    Hopefully some of our members will share their experiences and advice with you soon as well.

    Kind regards,
