How this treatment impacted my life the most

I was very satisfied with my treatment which was delivered in a very professional way. I was a bit anxious about what the side effects would be, and there were a few, but overall I feel I made the right decision about my treatment option. The treatment occurred at the time that I was retiring from work, so it has taken a bit of adjustment bearing in mind these two big life events.

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

I was very satisfied with the advice and treatment that I experienced, delivered in a very professional manner with very good follow up support by Marie Curie nurses.
