Hi All,
I have just had my first Radiotherapy session, and for anyone who is waiting and wondering, I have put a description of what happened in the Radiotherapy group.
Because I still have private medical insurance through my husband's work, I am having my adjuvant therapy privately.
The type of radiotherapy I am having is IGRT ( image guided radiotherapy ) so no tattoos, and VMAT ( Volumetric Modulated arc Therapy). It's very targeted therefore, as I believe is the case for all the therapy used these days.
It was all very easy, I was fascinated by the machine. Felt like it was my robot friend.From walking in to the building to walking out was 30 minutes. I would guess the actual treatment was about 15 minutes of that.
Hope that reassures anyone who is waiting to do theirs.
Hugs all round and hope everyone has a good day today.
