Hi Mary,

I am sorry you are having some problems after your treatment. Mammosite and Brachytherapy are not readily available and are usually given as part of a clinical trial. It would be best to return to your hospital Consultant to inform him of your discomfort.

Please do not hesitate to contact the Irish Cancer Society's National Cancer Helpline on FreeFone 1800 200 700 to speak to a specialist nurse in confidence. We are open from 9am -7pm Mon to Thur and Fri 9am – 5pm.
With kind regards,

Cancer Information Service Nurse.
