Ive done 12 sessions and have 3 still to go. I was reviewed after no 12 as I have what looks like a really angry heat rash and some blisters. The treatment team have just said continue with Aveeno and taking antihistamines and they will review again on Monday. No 12 was friday. It was 30 degrees for a few days last week which has probably contributed to it. Im scared this is goimg to get a lot worse before it gets better. The itchiness is constant and worse at night and blisters are increasing in number. Im wondering if anyone else has similar experience and they can share how it developed?

I have read that many people are given/prescribed Flamigel RT to help. Check with your team Monday if it is suitable for you.
I used Radiaderm R1 and R2 which was specifically designed to be used with radiotheraphy. I used from day 1 and didn’t get any reaction even though I have fair sensitive skin.
Hope you feel better soon.

Would you recommend it? I have radiotherapy in a couple of weeks and burn easily so I’m looking for something to use before I get problems.
@bluetit11 I’m really fair & covered in freckles-always burnt in the sun even with high spf but I did 15 rounds of radiotherapy & my skin has been a little pink only. All the water & moisture & you might be ok x

What did you use to moisturise?
@bluetit11 Aveeno spray for ease straight after the radio then the rest of the time eucerin urea lotion which I think is amazing x
Thanks
