Woo hoo its done , the last week went really quick and now its time to recover.

I have really bad cystitis, i have a upside down wash bottle but the urge to go comes on so quick im lucky to get to the bathroom , so not had the chance to use the bottle yet.

I also have alot of broken down skin which im using flaminal hydro and polymem dressing it does help seems the best thing is to keep still as soon as i move it pulls and bleeds

I was having epsom salt baths but can i still have them now the skin is falling off ? 

Not sleeping well as I keep waking up every hour for a wee and I do like my sleep . I will be spending the weekend being  still 

hope you are all ok

  • Congratulations  , hoping you’ll be on the healing high road soon. 

    I had Epsom salt baths throughout my treatment & recovery, in the early days post treatment it was where I was most comfortable to be honest! I also suffered radiation cystitis periodically from week 2 of treatment, it’s no fun is it? a jug of water by the loo, drinking plenty of water & sugar free cranberry juice was my saviour. 

    Hope your recovery is a speedy one.
