Radiation survival kit, and hints
I have been thinking that I wished that I had a kit and or hints to help with radiation when I was going through treatment.
I used Calendula cream from day one. I put it on right after treatment in the dressing room. I then put in on once during the day and then right before bed.
I used baby wiped to wipe my breast after treatment and before I put on my cream every day.
When my breat was getting really dry, I put A&D onitment on top of the calendula cream to help keep it mosit.
I put all of this in a baggie and carried it with me.
I hope this helps, and other tips and hints to follow.
