I get to ring the bell tomorrow. I feel like 28 treatments went by pretty fast. The worst part was coping with bad weather. I finally got some burn last Thursday and peeled a bit under my arm. All is well as long as I continue to put the cream on. I will meet with rads onc in one month. I see my med onc in March also. I will also have a CT scan done. I will have an xray in May instead of a mammo. Hopefully both tests will show All Clear :-)

    Char, That's great.
    I had 33 treatments with only mild burning. It healed very fast. Keep up with the creme until all the redness is gone.

    Congratulations!

    Way to go, Char!
    Great job--I'm sure you're so happy to not be going there every day--especially in snow/ice. Now's the time to rest and relax. Glad your side effects were minimal as well. It's not a bad idea to continue with your creams for awhile. Take good care.

    Hugs, Renee
