Just finished my 6 weeks of radiation to my chest wall, axilla and sternum. I have to share the name of the cream I used because it saved me. I was told up front that I would have a rough time because of all the chemo I have had and the fact that I am very fair skinned. The radiation oncologist felt fairly certain I would blister. I was recommended a burn sauve from an Acupuncturist that I used religiously - Springwind Burn Sauve. You can purchase it online and its fairly cheap. It is thick and brown and smells like herbs.......not in a good way. My husband said I smelled like an old pile of wet leaves! BUT it really did the trick for me. On the final day of treatment, I was told that I was a 5 out of 10 on experiencing skin reactions - no blisters, no itching, redness that would go away over night.
I wanted to share the product name and hope it might help someone else in need.
