Hi Kristen, we think that my wife had a radiation recall on her neck. It only seemed to last a day or two where the areas that had been radiated turned real red but no sores. You could basically almost see a line between where it was red like a sun burn and normal flesh color. I know when she was on a clinical trial, they were always wanting to know anything out of the ordinary and an sure the trial you are on will want all your details.

Good luck and our prayers are with you.
