Treatment finished

I had my last radio therapy treatment a week ago. Physically  I feel not too bad ... tired and a bit sore. I just feel a bit lost ... I have friends and family around but I do miss the support of the staff and fellow patients. 

  • Hi Elspeth,

    Welcome to this friendly forum. Missing the support of the staff and fellow patients is quite a natural reaction. I too felt just the same as I met some wonderful people while having my 37 radiotherapy treatments for prostate cancer. Plus the staff were fantastic and just like with he patients I had many a laugh with them. Some people do feel a bit lost for a while for you have been through a very hectic time while undergoing ttreatment and now, suddenly this has ended and you have nothing much to do by comparison.

    I wish you well when you get your follow up results and please let us know how your getting on. Best wishes and kind thoughts being sent your way, Brian

     

     

  • Thank you Brian ... its good to know other folk are having the same feelings. Travelling the 40 odd miles for treatment everyday became a way of life!! Like you the waiting room became a very friendly and comfortable place to be. 

    Let's hope we both stay well
