  • Hi Phil. So the start of the long and winding road of treatment if going the chemoradiation route. Appointments will start coming from all angles. I'm old school and got myself a daily wall planner to keep up with things. Once you get in to the routine, you will be fine. Keep us up to date. Best wishes.

    Best wishes to All,   rily.

  • Hi Phil I have similar going on this week - Lots of treatment and tests, by next week will be over and test like Kidney Function and Nuclear medicine are not that regular. 

    You will get used to the routine - As a BTY Nuclear Scan easier than a CT Scan I thoiugh but boring.  I had a Pet Scanjust once, some tests are not repeated. I found.  Good luck.
