Discharge

Hi Beccie - I would suggest tall to radiotherapy nurse specialist today - if you have a cancer care line use that or your treatment location.  I had some discharge but no smell so can’t compare for you - But anything at all speak with them and tell them as some things happen and if you don’t share the weekend is here and it’s harder to get reassurance x 

love Angie x

Thank you xx

Are you using any dressings? I was given Polymem which cleans and treats the wounds. It was a bit of a hassle getting used to it but it did work really well. 

Hi Angie,

I believe you are passing the zapped tumour. I have no medical qualifications at all so could be talking rubbish but I did ask when I had these symptoms, and it did make sense. 

Please check with your medical people though, just to be sure.

Hi Beccie

Well done for getting through it!  And yes to discharge but the amount of chemo I had (I had six months systemic chemo prior to the chemo/radiotherapy) has done something to my sense of smell and I couldn't (and still can't) smell anything.  But mention it to your treating team (rather than your GP), they can reassure you as most of us pass all sorts of things in the early days after treatment.

Hope you get an answer that puts your mind to rest.

Thank you I will x
