I used a compounded cream of lidocaine & silvadene for 2 years. My Dr just changed it to clobetasol propionate ointment. I didn't realize it changed until I picked up. My New ointment seems to be working okay. The irritation, itching and inflammation is ongoing and unfortunately every time you sit or stand up you irritate it. It certainly does change things in regards to quality of life. But I will take it over death. #CANCERSUCKS

You are so right! I am thankful when my results come back good! Wish I felt as good . This controls your life. Good & bad days but I guess this is my new life. Do you do anything to help you get thru any bad days?
I find I need to keep busy otherwise too much time to this about this! I am retired & didn’t expect my retirement years to be spent like this😞
