I am due to go in tomorrow for Brachytherapy with an overnight stay and feel so disappointed that I am going in without knowing much apart from what I have read on here and in books that were given to me at the beginning. I text my Key Worker this morning who said she will call me later today and I have really struggled to stay awake after my 5 weeks of radiotherapy- no phone call yet.
Could anyone tell me what I need to pack to take in hospital? Do I need jamas dressing gown toiletries etc?
Do I need to remove my nail polish? As im sure my consultant mentioned an epidural but they said I was being put to sleep when I went for my pre op.
I am very nervous now.
Hi Trease
I’m sorry you haven’t heard back from your nurse, especially when you are going in tomorrow. It can make it more nerve wracking feeling you don’t have enough information.
I hope some of the other ladies who been in overnight for this will be able to answer your specific questions.
