I completed my radiotherapy seven weeks ago and have a telephone appointment with the consultant tomorrow morning but havent had any follow-up scans
My question is I am still having coughing fits and have a shortness of breath. How do I know if the treatment has worked? I have no other symptoms
Hi again Dolydd just make sure you have all your issues listed on paper and make sure that you talk about them.
You would not normally have a scan post Radiotherapy for a good few months as the Radiotherapy keeps on working for a good period of time…… do ask about a scan tomorrow.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
