I went for my first treatment today. It took about an hour because they did some imaging and adjusting to make sure everything was aimed exactly as it should be. The technicians, nurses, and doctors at Turville Bay are all so great. They explain and reassure as second nature. A little hand on the arm can go a long way. The nurse gave me some lotion that they recommend. Did you know some lotions have metal in them? That's not so good for radiation treatment! My next appointment should be shorter. Soon it will just be routine.

What kind of lotion did they recommend?
ReplyDeleteWell, it's this very strange medical looking stuff. But when I was reading the ingredients I saw that it has titanium something or other, which sounds pretty metal-like to me. And I don't like how it smells, like Nivea. They said Aveeno was a good brand, but I'm going with Cetaphil and the Vanicream that we already have for Bode.
