I’ve just completed three weeks of treatment so now half way through - 15 sessions done out of 28.
No skin issues yet but I’m bracing myself.
Bowel movements are incredibly painful and knock me out for a few hours afterwards. I asked for more pain relief today and have oramorph. I must take paracetamol regularly.
Otherwise side effects are annoying but manageable, nausea and tiredness mainly. I do have vup Al itching so they also provided cream for that - could be radiotherapy but also could be peri/menopause.
I hope this is useful for anyone about to start treatment - it’s a pain but doable.
Onto week 4 - the homeward stretch!
