    Thanks everyone for all the info
    Yea had my last radiation treatment today. Put a fork in it I'm done. Got on top of the pain with a little help from my regular doctor. Makes such a difference. I also got a UTI and got that under control now i'm oozing alitte and I know the itching is going to start soon feel a little treak every now and then so thanks for the info about benadrly. See my surgeon on the 26th hoping the tumor shrunk enough only need to remove scar tissue. I have rectal cancer that is 1cmm from the anal verge if not I am in big trouble don't want a colostomy. Thanks again for all the info on this anal site radiation treatment more like your experience than colon cancer radiation. Good luck to everyone. Laura

    Congrats on being done!

    YAHOOOOOOOOOOOO!
    I'm so glad to hear you're finished your last treatment. I cried on my last day. I was given a Guardian Angel pin, a survey to complete, and some aftercare instructions. I remember that day well. I never thought that the day would come where I wouldn't have to lay on that table and hear that machine. Welcome to recovery! Take things slow...one day at a time. You will get stronger and feel better as each day passes!

    A** Tea
    The nurse gave me a tea receipe for a sitz bath using black or green tea. 3 tea bags a Quart of water, brew the tea. then I put it in my butt bucket add tap water let it cool a bit and sit in it. OMG it actually hepls with the itch and irritated skin by drying it up. My skin looks and feels much better. Try it, really **** Tea is good for you.
