Itchy and tired is not a good combo

Less than one minute read time.
Hello can anybody help? I'm finished a course of radiotherapy - yay to that! I never felt a thing at 1st as I've had a mastectomy and am numb but a week later and i am blistered under my arm and right over my chest- I don't want to be a pain and waste the nurses time because let's face Ive been there far too often this year for my liking. if anyone knows the best solution - my friend suggested savlon but it nips. It's keeping me awake n driving me mad!!! Grateful for any advice Thanks Kerry- itchy & tired! X

    Hi Kerry I 2 have had a mastectomy and radiotherapy so I know just how you feel.

    If I were you I'd get back to the nurse and ask for some cream , you are not being a pain and they are more than happy to treat you. Also you really don't want to get an infection. The cream will help and heal letting you get a good sleep.

    Good Luck xx Ruby500

    Hi Kerry,

    Have a word with your nurse about" Keri Therapeutic Lotion" see if that helps. All the best and Good Luck.

    Take care and be safe Big Hugs Love Sarsfield.xx

    Thanks sarsfield, my appointment isn't until next Thursday- I'm hoping I'm on the mend by then. I'll see if the chemist will have it. It's like the microwave effect-still cooking after it's pinged! ;0) Have a good wknd Kerry x
