A cream that i used on my neck that all the nurses were very impressed with during radiation had emu oil in it and I have no scar or sign of even having radiation at this point and im 3 months post tx, www.emumagic.com and i used the theracare lotion. Wish there was a magic wand to wave and make it all better or speedier but there isnt. USE that peg when needed is the most important thing to keep hydrated and stay out of the hospital. If any hitches come up just message and there will be a bunch of replies with experienced replies on its way.
Best of luck and sounds like you have all your priorities all in order and some good help with you.
