Re: Aysa update

Aysa, you are doing really well but please keep doing your arm exercises, even though they hurt, because lymphodema is awful.
The radio therapy is painless and fast, so no need to worry about that, but please make sure you have a big supply of E45 cream and use it whether you think you need it or not... it really helps.
Hey, what am I going to advise you on when you are fully recovered and don't need to listen to me?

There could be slight burning from the radio therapy and that is why you need to keep your skin moisturised. I was burned and didn't even know, so good idea to use emollients whether you think you need them or not. Once that is over, you can start getting back to normal . Yippee

Re: Aysa update

I can only echo what the others have said Aysa - good to hear you're on the mend. You'll be up and about in no time by the sound of it.
