Hello Jacs
how you doing hun ?
is the cream not helping ? Could you ask your GP msybe if he could prescribe something like anthyhistinine xxx
Hey, yeah the gel the hospital gave me made it worse and aloe Vera jelly made it worse. I take antihistamines daily and I have got some cream that calms it a bit.just got to ride it out. How are you doing now? Xx
Jacs
I’m so happy you have finished I hope it settles down for you .
im very good had my first annual check last week ot was all clear I was so happy x
Will you be taking any hormone therapy? Xx
That's amazing news what a relief. Yeah been on tamoxifen a month xx
Jacs

Not to bad. Just tired still cause of radiotherapy and the rash.getting pain in my breast at night xx
Yes the tiredness definitely lasts a few weeks but it does go you soon be back to fighting fit hun

Yes Jacs take all the time you need , I hope it settles down quickly xx if not call your GP or breast nurse tomorrow, the cream I had from gp was excellent nlt a nice smell but did the job xx
Had to go to the Oncology assessment ward and go on a drip with antihistamines and pain relief. Have a prescription for cream and strong antihistamines so hopefully that will help xx
