I've made myself a playlist for treatment. Everything upbeat. All sorts of songs.
If you had music, what songs did you have?

Hazel aka RadioactiveRaz 35 radiotherapy and 2 chemo 3 rd cancelled. HPV tonsil cancer 7 lymph nodes. 8 years post treatment living a great life.
No questions too daft to ask.
I took the Bay City Rollers Greatest Hits. They used to play it for me in Radiotherapy.
Fascinating choices. I was too busy watching the machine and listening to his sounds to notice what was being played. He treatment room also had a forest and seashore video across the ceiling but I was in the wrong places to see all but a section. I often thought jungle and seaside sounds would be good.
I've got a very varied taste.
My list is all upbeat. When I played it for my mask fitting, the first song that came on was Blackbird by the Wurzels!
