How did your skin go with Radiotherapy? You are almost finished.
What skin treatment did you use in the end?
I will start Letrazole in a few weeks, when I next see my Oncologist.
Every step of the way, there are knew side effects to be aware of.
We can only hope that we are lucky with these, and don't get side effects or they are minimal.
Fingers crossed for both of us.
Hi Abbydog, yes so far so good with the radiation, only 3 more to go then I am finished. I started out with MooGoo udder cream, and the nurses gave me pure sorbolene cream. I broke out in a couple of breaks in my skin so they gave me Lignocaine Gel to put on them and when it dries, to use Bepanthen antiseptic cream, and so far everything is going well.
I see my oncologist 4th November to discuss armipex if that is the one he is starting me on. I had a bone scan and based on that He will suggest the best one for me.
Yes I have my fingers crossed for both of us, as I hope by Christmas my hair will have grown so no more turban/caps and I feel heaps better.
Enjoy your day, cheers Cheryl xx
