Hi everyone,

I was diagnosed with a scc on my upper lip in December, the ENT Dr's I saw prescribed interstitial brachytherapy or radical surgery as treatment.
I had the consultation with the radiotherapy Dr on Thursday about the brachytherapy.
I have found and read a reasonable amount of info on brachytherapy but would really like to hear from others who has had it.
They are proposing high dose brachytherapy administered 2 X a day through 2 catheters inserted into my lip and a week stay in hospital.
I have a PET scan on Tuesday as there are a couple of enlarged lymph nodes (hoping it's nothing) then I'm scheduled to go in for brachytherapy on Sunday 25th Jan
So anyone had brachytherapy?


SCC on top lip,
diagnosed 6th Dec 2014 recommend for high dose brachytherapy.
