Re: Radiation Advice?
Hi deb, I had five fields of rad txs so I did get pretty burned up. ( It was still much better then Chemo for me )3 hints; don't use any soap on the Rad area. ( none at all, trust me ); Aquaphor ointment 2x a day saved me and remember when you are completely done you won't start to heal until 2 weeks after your last Tx.
