You know, when the oozing stopped after radiation was over (they actually thankfully took me off the Iressa for a few months too, which probably amped the blistering up), all that stuff did "dry" up and I quit putting creams on it and allowed it to dry up.

In my case, the goo I put on it was almost as bad as the goo erupting from my neck. The goo was driving me crazy. My hair (what was left of it) would get in the goo and drive me to the shower frequently. At one point I was taking at least three or four showers a day.

After the goo phase, I entered into the scab phase. For this I was grateful. I felt like a dirt magnet with the grease all over my neck.

Just keep telling yourself "This too shall pass"
