This is the only peeling I have had. My tips would be the following:
. Moisturise in the morning, straight after treatment and prior to going to bed
. I used the hospital provided David Craig 100% pure Sorbelene cream and was advised to stick to this throughout rads
. Moisturise after rads have finished but only on unbroken skin
. Use a aluminium free deodorant for the duration of rads
. A little bit of boob swelling might happen if so take off the bra. But I did manage to wear my comfy old underwire bra throughout rads
It is a lot easier and quicker than chemo with minimal side effects, it does affect everyone differently. Probably the most tedious thing is the daily trip to and from rads.
Best of luck with your radiotherapy it's one more step on the road to recovery. Cheryle :)
