Radiation therapy

The doctors have to give you the worst case so you can't sue them later. Mine was on my left breast. They missed my heart and lungs even though I was told they might hit them.I sometimes get upper rib pain but not enough to make me worry and have been told it is probably from radio. After your chemo radio will be a breeze.

Including myself three of us found the breast cancer Radiation team at Lyell McEwin excellent. If I had to do it again I would happily return there. (Just had my 4th followup Mammogram & all is healthy so it does happen!) Staff were superb. I prefered to get treatment as early in the am as I could book in as then you get less holdups. I fortunately did not need chemo but several other friends I transported to chemo at Lyell McEwin were very pleased with the quality of service provided in that section. Do enquire if they have any accommodation options. Lots of prayers Patricia

The travel would make it hard. It was easy for me living close to the city and I went to work after treatment. I hope you can find somewhere to stay so that it doesn't cost extra. 

Good luck Friday. Let me know what happens. Happy to catch up for coffee if you need to. I do work full time but self employed so can sneek out if I have time

It would certainly be preferable to stay in Adelaide. Some people get tired with all the travelling after radiation. Blessings & prayers memyselfI
