 Hi all...just finished my rads early June. I did get a burn on my chest which kind of blackened and then peeled off. It wasn't painful and I was putting flamazine on it (prescription cream). Wow, it cleared up within days. Started back to my 2 jobs the same week and have  not experienced any fatigue which is the one I was worried about. Have lots of joint pain and stiffness when I first get up in the morning and  after sitting for more than 10 minutes. It usually eases up after I've been moving around for a few minutes....but its kind of embarrassing when people are around. I'm only 52 yrs. old! I think this problem is related to either the chemotherapy or the the tamoxifen that I am taking now. Good luck to you all with your radiation treatments.
