I am soon to start intense radiotherapy over 5 days rather than 18 shorter sessions due to coronavirus. I am putting E45 cream on. Are there any hints, tips, does and don’ts out there? Stay safe xx
Hi
Quite a few have had their treatments tweaked and/or shortened due to Covid. With the 5 day radiotherapy regime they use a higher daily dose to the usual figure.
You could check out the April Rads Discussion (link) in the main breast group and ask about this there as it is breast rads specific.
Hope you find this is of some help, G n' J
