  • Hi there, I am so sorry that you had such a tough time with your chemo. I am not sure what type of cancer you have but I have recently completed 20 sessions of radiotherapy for breast cancer and apart from some skin reddening had no side effects.  I definitely think drinking plenty of water and moisturising the treated area helped massively.  Obviously it does depend on the dose of treatment you are given in terms of side effects. Wishing you all the very best of luck with your treatment.
