Is 6 weeks of weekday radiotherapy normal? Has any one else had this much? And if so under what circumstances? Does it mean a lot of cancer is left after surgery?
Hi Ma78 it all depends on the cancer type but weeks of radiotherapy can be normal…… I had a total of 45 days over a year and half for my type of cancer….. but do ask this question in the cancer specific groups……. look through THIS LIST where you will find all our dedicated cancer support groups listed.
Hi Ma78
As Mike has explained, it depends on the type of cancer. I had 32 sessions, so just over 6 weeks. Not everyone has surgery before radiotherapy-I didn’t for example, so the amount of radio I had was normal for my situation.
