I had WBR several years ago so I do not remember specifically what s/e i had. I did have a cloaked ear that had to be cleaned out by the ENT because of all the dry skin. So that helped. As far as my hair I had read from another woman on the boards to ask for blocks at the top of my scalp where the RT overlaps so that I do not have a reverse mohawk. The Dr. put the blocks on towards the end of treatment. My oncologist said out of all of his pts. my hair by far looks the best than any other pt. he has ever had. My hair is thinner than it was but you would never guess I had WBR. I did have some side effects and I do remember they went away soon after treatment. Good luck to you! p i kna
