Hi DebraC,
Yes, I'm only having 16 total and no boosts. RO doesn't think more is necessary. Had 11th this morning!

Well I'm done dear June-y friends. Last rad was on Thursday.
Oddly enough, the area turned red'ish three days later over the weekend. It's tan now and fading fast. Nothing on my back. The aloe and calendula really made a big difference for me.
I am however, after the fact, EXHAUSTED. The fatigue hit the last couple of days and has stayed with me. It isn't life changing, but my stamina is in the toilet right now. But overall I feel fine, if I don't try to do too much.

Yeah I've found the three weeks post rads I've been more fatigued that I was during it. It's the gift that keeps on giving. If my RO hadn't told me the fatigue can take 4 to 6 months to go away, I'd be beating myself up right now. So there's that.

Mine warned me as well edj3, but since I got through with almost zero side effects, I thought I was scott free. Ha.
PS: The INFERNAL heat the past couple of weeks hasn't helped.

Did everybody get radiation tattoos? Mine are just permanent marker ‘X’s covered by circular clear adhesive. I never heard of boosts until this site either. Everyone has such a specific plan geared just for them, it’s great they know so much that they can tailor our treatments. But confusing too

Together - I got 4 tattoos - sharpie marks every day but no tape. I think every hospital has their own protocol.
