hi everyone,

just a query, had a lumpectomy and 2 sentinel nodes removed 7th July, results came back good and wounds healed really well. However I still have a bit of a rash, wondering if that is normal.

i start radiotherapy tomorrow, hugs and good vibes to all club members, Berrie

    Hi Berrie, make sure that you check with your radiation team about the rash, as they will be able to advise you how to treat it. Don't take a step without discussing it with them. Take care, Trace ??

    Hi Tonya, no not over wound, in armpit, few centimetres behind wound. Initially was burning,a week after surgery, heaps of moo goo stopped the burning but still have a bit of rash. Any clues?

    thanks Berrie
