Just popping back to close this thread out.
I did 15 radiation sessions and used the StrataXRT cream twice a day and drank 2 litres of water. While I had breast pain/tenderness including nerve pain I had no skin breakdown and barely any redness. Now two weeks post treatment - and still applying strata - I’ve had no visual breast changes and aside from some residual tenderness you’d never know I had radiation. The only downside for me was the tenderness when applying Strata due to the need to spread it thinly - I don’t think something like Moo Goo would have felt like this as I would have been able to slather it on. That said, given my results I’d chose StrataXRT again if I was starting over. In my case it felt worth the money.
cheers and thanks again for the support.
