I don't know if you had a lumpectomy which is what I had; My nipple has been affected the most, it feels the way it does when you start breast feeding and they havent toughened up yet. I have discovered using breast pads (for lactating women) with a huge dollop of E45 cream or diprobase helps, it stops rubbing and keeps the cream on the skin.<br /><br />You will sail through it I am sure. Good for you making plans for days out and stuff, such a positive step.<br /><br />As for me? I start herceptin next week!Sara Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16741008340503019303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1164222175155924487.post-44264545485770118842009-10-08T06:47:07.168-05:002009-10-08T06:47:07.168-05:00You're through the chemo, and that's the h...You're through the chemo, and that's the hard part. I 'reacted' and it hurt. I kept a bottle of aloe vera in the fridge, and it was very soothing. Try keeping your lotion there if you find that you're having problems.Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1164222175155924487.post-52073291519246924462009-10-07T23:29:54.550-05:002009-10-07T23:29:54.550-05:00congrats on this next step - one step closer to be...congrats on this next step - one step closer to being done :) yay!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00381436173520467146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1164222175155924487.post-19753479139577270472009-10-07T23:25:09.584-05:002009-10-07T23:25:09.584-05:00Well Beth, soon you will be done with your treatme...Well Beth, soon you will be done with your treatments.

Take time each day to do something fun, like you're doing with your dad. If you're like me, this part will be a breeze!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16176657544444239191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1164222175155924487.post-88820107697200316792009-10-07T10:00:08.228-05:002009-10-07T10:00:08.228-05:00I'm glad that you are now on "phase 2&quo...I'm glad that you are now on "phase 2" of your treatment and that you are making plans for how to spend the rest of the day. It is such a "short" treatment and you realize that if you are early in the day you have the remainder of the day ahead of you. With any luck, your skin will withstand the treatment. I had 36 hits (30 regular and 6 boosts) and my skin withstood it quite well. Wishing you the same ♥Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08271529958269038071noreply@blogger.com
