SRS Cost

Hi Guys,

As you'll know from my previous posts. 8 weeks ago my Girlfriend has a solitary 4 x 3.5cm Bran Met completely resected. For the past 5 weeks we have tried to get a SRS boost to where the tumour was. We are in the UK. We are still waiting to see whether our National Health Service will pay for this. Getting pretty annoyed about this now. This is what our Rad Onc wants to do . If not our Onc wants to go for WBRT. I want to keep this for if it is needed in the future.

I am against this. Does anyone have an idea how much the SRS boost would privately? I've contacted a few hospitals, but nobody has replied. Hopefully the NHS will pay, but I want to be prepared if they don't.

She had a scan last week and it was all clear. Recovery from surgery has been excellent as well.

Thanks
