Hello everyone 

I have 3 more radiotherapy sessions left and will have them done 25 in total 

I have leg pain in both legs and extreme tiredness 

I just wanted to know how long this would carry on for? U am taking co codamol and whilst it helps I’m wondering if I need anything stronger? 

Thanks for reading my post

  • Hi ,

    sorry to hear about what you are going through I know how tough pain can be. To see if you need anything stronger though you would need to speak to oncology team who would need to asses things. I know sometimes though that stronger pain killers can increase tiredness so things are often a balancing act.

    Hope things work out for you.
