Thanks Karen for your input as well. I really don't have any problems with wearing anything I want. I guess the location of my sores is such that it doesn't get irritated by my bras or clothing thankfully, but I am using the aquafor to hopefully help the healing along.

Dear Rinaina

Haven't been able to post latley but wanted to help if could. I have completed 5 weeks rads to chest area for open skin mets. One week was booster. it was a horrible red , painful mess for about 2 weeks after and then started to heal. I used solugel which is a clear gel( maybe an Australian term) and covered it with cling wrap so it didn't lift off new skin. I still have a few patches healing but the rest is better. good luck.

love
Linda
