Brachytherapy

[MGS]

I'm about to undergo brachytherapy for endometrial carcinoma.  I'm a bit apprehensive about it, sounds not so nice.  Wondering what others experiences have been.

Well I've had my first treatment and my aprehension was well founded.  It was very uncomfortable and very confronting.  Staff were fabulous but to be honest it just isn't a very pleasant thing.  Anyway if anyone wants to chat about it, I now have some knowledge!

Hi, I know this post of yours is old and I am hoping you are well!

I have two rounds of Brachy coming up and I am really apprehensive about it, would you still like to share information?

Thanks 🙂

Hi Lyoness, I had 4 rounds of Brachytherapy 3 years ago and it's a bit confronting but not at all painful and with 2 treatments the side effects will be minimal, I had 4 over 2 weeks and at the end had a bit of fatigue for about a week, You will be fine, I have had no recurrence in 3 years so you will be fine. Sending you blessings and love for a full recovery.
