Thank you Colleen. I have 3 more pelvic radiation treatments and then planning visit and 2 brachy treatments, one next week and one the week after. Just learned more details. Anyone have pain or concerning side effects? It has me a bit anxious but sounds like it won't be too bad. I am not feeling great this week but I am almost done treatment. It could be worse! Plan to try and rest this last few weeks.

Rest is healing, E. Take as much as you can.

Let me rustle up some fellow members to accompany you across the finish line, like @miriam57 @embeth99 @m1b1r9 @jeanadair123 and @polkagal and @naturegirl5. They can also share about their experiences with pain or any concerns or side effects with finishing pelvic radiation and/or brachytherapy.

Eileen, I had 5 brachytherapy treatments, all painless for me, and with no immediate or long-term side effects. It has been almost 3 years since I had them and I have been in remission all of that time. You can do this, you WILL make it to the other side! We are here if you need us 🙂
