Hi
i saw my “open access” nurse yesterday and she reminded me that we need to super protect the area that has had radiotherapy, because of the amount of rays we have received I had totally forgotten about that, and went straight into the pharmacist and bought some factor 50.
Thought i I would mention in case I’m not tHe only one to have forgotten.
Would just like to add that yes of course we need to be careful and I was told the same , in fact my nurse was horrified that I was going abroad 3 weeks after rads finished and put the fear of God in me about keeping out of the sun!! I went armed with my 50 factor and thinking my poor boob was going to fry but I had no reaction to the sun at all and having been abroad many times since never have! ??
