Tips on Radiation Dermatitis?

Hi Colleen,

Thank you for asking. I had some itching within 24 hours and I put cerave moisturizer on it. I have noticed some chills at times, feeling like I could be feverish but when I take my temp, it's normal. I had some weird sensations near the top of my left upper lobe in the middle of the night. Mostly, I am super tired.

I have the second SABR tomorrow so I will have another experience to look at. 🙂

I also had had a reaction to the tegederm used to cover the marks they made. When I was there on Thursday, I asked for remarking and for new coverings. When they saw my skin reaction, they gave me hypoallergenic tegederm. I wanted to cry because I told them I had sensitive skin and they didn't do the thing that would have made me so much more comfortable the first visit. No reactions to the hypoallergenic tegederm which is huge.

This second treatment targets a different lesion so I may have a different response, I'm guessing.

Thank you for asking!
BPB

How did the second SABR go, BPB?
