I was feeling pretty darn smug about it not happening to me. Then it hit me at the worse possible time. The rash came after my last of the 35 radiation tx when I was severely burned. I was a real mess. I oozed for weeks. So much for Karma and being smug, eh? Anyway, this side effect is so common, I think it's rarer not to break out. Just my opinion. Best of luck to you both, Carol
