Okay, has anyone heard of radiation recall? Is it only caused by chemo? The reason I'm asking is, I started a medication this weekend to raise my blood pressure and I had what I think is an allerigic reaction but the more I research it, the more I'm not totally convinced. Basically, the lower half of my face, and my neck and the top of my chest - the radiated areas - are bright red and itchy, a little swollen, and they are really tender to the touch. I did not know if radiation recall could be caused by other medications or if I really was just allergic to the meds. I stopped taking the meds and talked to my endocrinologist today and then I was just googling stuff tonight because I thought it was weird that the reaction was only in the radiated area. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
