Its true I am...thats what the radiographers said today!

I was asked if I was using the aqueas cream today..I said yup three times a day as instructed..as well as the e45 emmoliant bath oil and the e45 emmoliant body wash.

Apparently by now because of being so fair I should have at least 2nd degree burns by now and be all blistered and manky....however...im just a tidgy bit pink on my scar and thats it.  The radiographers were stunned cos the dosage im having isnt exactly a small dose of zappings..so i should be well manky but im not lol.  They have agreed that im just a freak and go against all the books lol.

So I feel quite smug being special and rare lol.  The only side effects im having now is the constant tiredness, feeling a bit tender, bit like a massive bruise, and feeling really quesy for a few hours after having the rads, which is normal now and just going through a bit of radiation sickness...oh the joys.

One of the machines (not mine) was misbehaving today..and its always a bit worrying when the techies walk through the waiting room messing about with a geiger counter..his readings shouldve gone off the scale walking past us lot lol!  Still not many to go now woohoo.
