I used Biafine during treatment and it worked really well. It kept my burn from getting bad until the very very end. But even the Biafene you should use after your rad. each day and not put on the morning before you get radiation.
You are doing pretty well to have no signs of mucositis at the halfway point. Hang in there and keep coming here with questions.
