Unfortunately my first Radiotherapy session to day was not completed as I was tensing up on the bed due to my back pains very disappointing! Try again tomorrow with more pain relief not sure how that will go?
Hello Richards Dad
I am so sorry things haven't gone to plan. It's easy for me to say relax and go again but I can just imagine how hard it is with back pain. I don't know what the Radiologists have said, but can you get to your GP with an emergency appointment for some extra pain relief. I am sure if you explain why you need it you would be given priority.
Best wishes - Brian.

So sorry to read that you didn’t manage it today . My OH has a back problem (old diving injury) the radiographers were great and he has two wedges at his neck and that has helped him greatly.
Hopefully things are better tomorrow . Sending hugs as I know you will be disappointed .
