No radiation this week.
My short break from radiation did a lot to ease the pain
but, in the meantime, my skin has begun sloughing off. Like a super-peeling from a sunburn.
My Radiation Oncologist has suspended treatment for this
week and given me Domeboro and Silvadene to help the healing.
Domeboro is an astringent to dry the skin. And the Silvadene
is a silver-based antibiotic to prevent infection in the open wounds from the
peeling.
It’ll be nice to not get zapped again until at least Monday,
but I’m hoping to then be able to move forward and get this behind me.
