Hi Lisa. I burnt quite badly and needed a break with only 7 rads to go. The nurses gave me a lightweight cotton boob tube with straps to keep the gauze and padding in place. I used heaps and heaps of solugel i found it very soothing. I managed to find really comfy maternity crop bras from big w which i put over the boob tube when i went out. I was amazed at how quickly the skin heals. Post treatment i use moo goo now as part on my lymphodema massage regime. Take care snd hope things improve for you soon. Maryrose
