Just a suggestion if you would find it helpful, but I kept a daily diary throughout my treatment from my diagnosis in January this year (2023) up to the last of my brachy treatments last week. I wrote it each night before I went to bed to try to capture what I was feeling, dates, what I knew about next steps, questions I had if I had a scan/appointment coming up, pre and post surgery, adjuvant treatment etc. It helped a little with my disturbed sleep to sort of empty my whirring brain and if other women ask how it was for me, I have it written down. Sending hugs x
That sounds like a really good idea. I do know, I started to sleep better, after I had written down all the questions, that I wanted answered yesterday. Thank you for the suggestion.x
Hi Saz26,
That sounds like a great suggestion.
I hope you are recovering ok from your last brachytherapy treatment.
Jane
