Hi I’m due to have brachytherapy and they have said I’ve got to lay still for 24 hrs.has anyone else had to do this and how was it.thsnkyou x
Hi I had brachytherapy and was more worried about laying flat for all that time then the treatment . I was surprised how quick it actually went and nurses were very good , even moving me from ward to treatment area they were all so kind . I didn’t find it painful just uncomfortable . I just had kindle to read and most importantly a long phone charger . I hope all goes well for you . Kind regards val
