Hi Amy,
Congratulations on completing your radiation treatment :) I hope that your visit to nurse yesterday was helpful.
The Policy team at BCNA will soon be releasing a survey to women in our Review & Survey Group to see how often they experience more severe radiotherapy burns, what sort of information and support they were provided to assist them with burns, and any practical tips they would offer to other women.
From reading your post, it certainly sounds as though you, and some of the other women who have left comments, are experiencing painful changes to the skin.
If you are not a member of our Review & Survey Group but would like to participate in this survey, please email me at [email protected] and I will send the survey to you, most likely in the coming week.
This opportunity certainly extends to anyone who has had radiotherapy treatment for breast cancer, and would like to share their experiences.
Cheers,
Annie
