Hi all. I'm part way through my chemotherapy and my consultant has started talking about the 15 session of radiotherapy that will follow. I've had a bilateral mastectomy and node involvement, so need radiotherapy on both sides in both places.
I have 2 options...the local NHS hospital or using my company private medical to go to a clinic further away (double the distance), where transport to and from is provided.
I need to decide but am torn. If I can drive myself, the local hospital would be much closer, and the insurance offer a cashback option which would be helpful as off work still, but I've no idea what sort of side effects I might have/ if I'll be too tired to drive?
I'd be grateful to hear about anyone else's experiences.
Many thanks!
