Whereabouts do you live, @Me2 (just a town name will do ....) My husband had his chemo there in 2010 (75% if his cancer die within 5 years of surgery & he is still here) and I had my radiation at Port Macquarie just 2 months ago over 4 weeks .... they have the Rotary Lodge (at VERY reasonable prices, - heavily subsidised by IPTASS, plus your petrol costs reimbursed to get there.) It is attached to the Port Macquarie Base Hospital (a 50m walk from your room to your treatment) - and the chemo/rads are PUBLIC/free ...... it could well be worth looking into having any treatment there, if $$ are a factor.
The Rad Oncs there are lovely - Dr Hansen is mine (and my uke buddy who has Met BC) - she is so thoughtful for our treatment ......
I hope that you've got that lymphodema pain sorted ..... can you access the Marijauna Oil? It is supposed to be wonderful for all sorts of pain ..... I hope so!
