Anxiety over radiation burns: What can I expect?

I will be starting my radiation treatments on Monday 6/2, they still need to look at the CT to see if it will be 20 or 25 treatments but my doctor recommended Mepitel as well as some creams for around the edges of the silicone sheet, she said that she had great success with the silicone covering the skin especially with people who have fair skin.

Hi,
I used MooGoo Full Cream x3 times daily immeadiately after each treatment & 2 other times generously during the day & put cling film over the top then my bra.
The cling film kept the cream covering my skin in all day long & it didn't transfer on or in to my clothing. It works a treat on my skin. I did have radiation burns & discolouration but it healed quickly & well & my skin was super soft throughout. Even the breadt nurses said the clingfilm bit had definately kept the moisture in 24/7
Good luck 👍
I used the MooGoo Full Cream Moisturiser 500g its a uk product & they do a MooGoo Cancer Care Pack too.
Take care x
