Scarring from radiation

Hi @newbie3312 I only did 15 days (higher dose) but my experience was not bad.  I had the right side done including the superclave area.  I used Mepitel film (but had to ask for it - it wasn't offered) although I believe that many places are suggesting StrataXRT (think I've got that right) but it is pricey and I think you have to get it yourself.  I also used MooGoo cream fairly liberally whenever the film was off.  The film certainly made a difference because there was a tiny gap for 1 session and I got a significant tan line from it.  I had no burning during the treatment but about 3 weeks after I finished, I had a very tender reddened spot on the soft skin to the side of where my breast had been.  That's as bad as it got.  Now, other women have different stories to tell but for me, radiation was not a big deal.  The only other thing I could say is that I got very tired at times which is common, but to be fair, this was off the back of 6 months of chemo.
