  • Hi NBram,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat.

    We have some information about cryotherapy on our website, which may be helpful.

    You are also welcome to speak to our nurses if you'd like to talk things through. You can do this either by posting in the 'Ask the Nurses' section of this forum, or calling freephone 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

    Do of course discuss any questions or concerns with your doctor when you can too.

    Wishing you all the best,
