UK radiation therapy?
Just got an email from a guy in Richmond (via a site that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
vjezkova mentioned) who says he persuaded someone locally to treat his hand after he obtained a batch of research results from Germany.
If I can't get anyone locally, then Richmond sounds cheaper than Germany... (You have to stay around for a while as it's a short treatment on several successive days and you may have to go back for more than one treatment session after a few months)
He says it's making a small improvement - but, like me, his main aim is to prevent it getting worse. He reports that he's getting dry skin, but that's a known side-effect and has to be an improvement on not being able to extend your fingers... (Imagine not being able to play a musical instrument)
If anyone feels at a loose end, I could use a general natter over the phone.
Added later. I just checked up on the hospital he mentioned. Assumptions are dangerous things - he's in Richmond, Virginia...
