Felt empowered now feel defeated

Hi Kerr Kerr, that is not a good start to your next step of your treatment. If only some of the people treating us had experienced what we are going through they might be more understanding of our needs at such a vulnerable time. I have just had my 14th treatment of 30 and within the first two treatments I had one hand size patch of skin went quite pink and hot feeling. When I saw the nurse she recommended I swap from the moo goo I had been using 3 times a day to calendula to reduce the redness and heat. I did for a couple of days and it did reduce but not sure if swapping creams helped or it just settled on its own. I went back to the moo goo and it has stayed the pretty much the same with just a slight feeling of tenderness. The film was never mentioned and if this is as bad as it gets it will be ok. I hope you get on better with your next visit and get to use what you prefer.  Regards Maria
