Hi Jackie,
I have my last radiotherapy treatment tomorrow (yay!) and have worked throughout. Peter Mac scheduled my appointments for later in the day so I started work early and finished early. I have gotten tired but sometimes I wonder if it is the getting up early, working all day then rushing through the traffic to get to the appointments rather than the treatment itself. So I go to bed early and do what I can. My skin coped until last Friday when it finally broke...but since I have the kind of skin that burns in the shade I'm pretty happy I got that far with skin intact. That being said it is not overly sore. I used the cream they gave me plus aloe vera gel during the day as well. The nurses and treatment staff are all really nice and my employers have been really understanding of the time I've needed for treatments etc. Wishing you all the very best...cyber hugs...Anne
