@water_nymph moisturising the skin in the treatment area is essential. Nurses at the clinic should discuss creams and skin care with you and monitor you throughout. Beware the fatigue! You think you're not going too bad and might be lucky, then weeks later BAM! My advice is try and rest frequently all throughout, even if you just get to bed a little earlier, to avoid the crash at the end. I found radiotherapy very tollerable, especially compared to chemo, even though my skin broke down quite badly. All the best!
