Thanks so much for replying. I start next Tuesday. Im happy to hear that you didn’t burn. That’s so good! I will be diligent for sure, maybe I’ll be the same.
I’ve had a few scary things in the last couple of years, a colon resection, then diagnosed in August with breast cancer. Why on earth this is bothering me so much, I don’t know! Thanks again, I will aloe and calendula. Best to have a few choices. 🙏🏻

Your doctor should’ve given you a prescription for a burn cream that you can get at the pharmacy. They gave me a petroleum jelly cream and the prescription for another cream. I had to use one two times a day and one once a day. This should be standard procedure. Hugs.

I will think of you on Tuesday. Sometimes things have the "straw that broke the camel's back" effect. That is, stress builds up and the most recent thing seems the worst--although I think it can be accumulation. Glad you are on Connect.
