I don’t know. Have you asked your doc at Proton? If they say yes, I can bring some to Proton for you. I only have partial breast radiation and the film size is 4 x 4.8 inches and one dressing covers my area so I will have leftover film. Let me know area size so I know how many to bring. My name is Lynn and I will have my last treatment next Friday. PS- my skin is old and fair too!!

That’s a very kind offer Cobb/Lynn. That is so great the Mepitel worked so well for you. I have emailed my doctor about Mepitel, or something stronger I can use. I will let you know if Mepitel is recommended for me. (It’s the chest wall plus axilla, so a large area.) I only have 4 of 28 treatments left so I should also be done this next week if I continue. So anxious about making the rash and burn pain even worse with the remaining treatments.
