Hi . It's a few years since I had my RT and so far, so good. I didn't have a problem with it and carried on a normal social life throughout treatment. I did 30 sessions. The daily trips were a bit tiering but doable. Each session only lasts about 15 minutes and is painless, but there is usually a lot of waiting. They never seem to be on time. I had a coffee and toasted tea cake in the waiting area when waiting. You see many of the same people each day and in my case it was a friendly and upbeat atmosphere. Only after treatment finished, I started having a few after effects. Some bouts of fatigue and dodgy bowels for a few weeks, but it got back to normal. I had a chemo pump for two of my weeks, but again, no problems. Touch wood, no long term problems. I was transported daily by the NHS volunteer ambulance car service which was great. I hope all goes well and if you have any questions I will try and help. Best wishes.
Hi Betty. Just to add. If you are driving, you may be entitled to free hospital parking. The RT patients at my hospital were given parking passes. Best wishes.
