Like thay have all said everyone is different. MY skin never burned, but I had a horrible time with everything else. Here I am just 4 months later, eating all by mouth, and mowing the lawn. When I look back on those times during rads, I never thought I would be doing normal things again. I still get really tired, but I stop and rest and get right back at ti later. You can and will get through this and we are all here to help you do it.
