    Hello Chris

    What are your dates for radiation, mine will be some time Aug as I am having a double mastectomy July 3rd. There is a bus that goes up every day run from Peel health campus. I had 5 chemo's at Royal Perth and got transferred for last one to Peel and new oncologist. Radiation has to be Royal Perth.

    Hope you are doing well. If you want to catch up give me a ring 0421574033

    All the best Sarah

    I finally got a date through for radiation, so I go next Wednesday for my first appointment! Did you have long to wait from first appointment to actually stating radiation? Be glad when it's done and dusted and can get my life back!

    hi Chris

    I was told it takes two weeks to put together your radiation plan. The radiation oncologist is lovely. I had an appointment weeks ago not sure why as I still have to have my operation. I am having another round of chemo as well.

    Have a great day

    Hello Lynn

    Sorry to see you have joined the site but a huge welcome as it offers you lots of support. I am starting my second radiation early March, Fiona Stanley if you are going to another hospital you can get the free bus round by PATS from beside Peel hospital. They leave every morning at 7am and go to all the hospitals in Perth. You do get very tired and the company is good. Give me an email sarahrm@****.au. To-day I have Fiona Stanley. I am 55yrs old and breast cancer positive. Upgraded recently to stage 4. Brain. Just recovering from brain surgery. Wishing you well Sarah
