Radiation Shuffle on couch...rub rub rub...scratch scratch scratch...help going nuts. Not only the persistent itch from hell Radiation Sleepiness. God! Is this nightmare ever friggin going to end?? A year of misery...pain...treatment...itch from HELL!!
The itching!! I thought I would go insane. I posted just a few minutes ago in the Gyn Cancer about Calmol 4, which I found to be the best product for soothing and to stop the itching. I also used Recticare too. If it is unbearable, and those two products don't help, I would ask your doctor to see about dex or steroids. Good luck!

I feel for you, and am sorry. The only thing that worked for me was the Calmol 4 and once I had that I wondered why nobody had mentioned it for so long. It was better than the cortisone and the nitroglyercin and all of the other stuff. It allowed me to finally heal. Wishing you well and speedy recovery.
