I had a lumpectomy and lymph nodes removed in November. Successful surgery but about to start radiotherapy and have heard so many different things about side effects. Feeling a bit anxious
I can appreciate why you’re a bit anxious as you start your radiotherapy treatment, especially after your surgery.
Everyone’s experience with side effects can vary, but it can help to have a better understanding of what to expect. Our website has some information about radiotherapy side effects, which you might find reassuring as you prepare.
If you have any concerns or want to chat with someone about what’s ahead, our nurses are available to support you. You can reach them at 0808 800 4040.
Take things one day at a time, and remember that you’re not alone, we’re all here for you if you need a chat.
