Week 3 Radiation Treatment

I apologize for the delay with writing on here, been crazy busy and exhausted.

I have completed 3 weeks of radiation at this point with 3 weeks more to complete.  At this point, I have some minor skin irritation along the sides and top with some reddening happening however under my breast it is highly irritated.  To help correct this, I have decided to go braless for a few days to see how that helps.  My doctor has given me a cream and recommended vitamin E oil to help with the irritations. It definitely helps when it starts to itch like crazy.

The last week has been interesting with my energy levels, I get tired quickly. Had to co-facilitate classes on Monday and Tuesday and those days, I was dead when I got home. With the understanding I may be entering this phase, I will plan ahead my plans and if they were like today, I will rest the night before.  Today, I celebrated 2 friends 30th birthdays.  The first one was on the lake and the other dinner and some drinks afterwards.  I didn't have any drinks since I was dead tired but rested last night so I could handle all the fun today.  One of the parties was on the lake, so some tubing and boat riding. Haven't been on the lake in a while so it was nice just playing like a normal 29 year old. 

During radiation, I've completed 3 books, getting ready to start book #4, met some cool peeps going through radiation, and enjoyed getting to know the staff at the office.  Radiation is 10x better than chemotherapy, no sickness or balding. I can handle some burns and kick cancers ass again... and this time forever!
