Radiation swelling

Hi everyone
I have had four radiation treatments and tonight my L) Breast is quite swollen. Curious if others had this experience??

  • Thanks. It will get worse before it gets better. But it will get better. :)


  • Hi @Zoffiel,
    Yes I was planning to see the nurse today, thanx. Hope things clear up for you. 



  • Grab the nurse when you go in today and gat her/him to have a look at it. Four treatments sounds a bit early to be having significant side effects apart from perhaps a mild sunburn feeling.

    I'm having my 13th today and my armpit is really puffy. It looks pretty ordinary, to be honest. I was expecting it to get angry as that was where my recurrence was, they have had a fair hack at it and it's the main focus of the fryer. I have done the whole skin care thing and started on solugel last night. Sigh. Yeah, I get it, it's got to be one thing after another, but manky armpits? Ewww! Must I?
