My impression is that the treatment we get here in the UK is pretty similar to everyone else on the forum. We don't have insurance cover to worry about but we also don't have such a wide choice of cancer centers to choose from. I was luck to live near mine in Edinburgh which seemed very good and meant I didn't have to travel far for treatments.
Keep posting. Best wishes, Sally
