Hi everyone hope all ok I had radiotherapy yesterday 1 treatment has anyone had the same what they feel like
Hi Winst8…I was diagnosed with a colonic tumour last June…then had it removed in August.
Then given four cycles of chemotherapy…obviously everybody reacts differently but I had quite limited side affects mostly from the infusion. The muscle spasms were the worst but as time went by they became more manageable…everything else was bearable and manageable.
You will have up days and down days but with good support you’ll get through it…my partner has been an absolute rock.
I just learnt to everyday as it comes and most of all stay positive
