Prepping for Optune

I am currently about to undergo Optune treatment. This device is designed to be worn for 18 hours a day over a year. It is not only a medical device but also a source of hope and resilience in my battle against cancer. However, before I begin this journey, I have decided to take some proactive steps to mentally and physically prepare myself.

During my previous rounds of treatment, from tumor removal to radiation and chemotherapy, I experienced firsthand the toll cancer can take on my body. I remember the discomfort of having my hair fall out and the irritation caused by radiation, resulting in a painful radiation burn. This time, I am determined to face the challenges head-on. After delving into research and consulting with my oncology team, I have learned that proper preparation can significantly impact the success of the Optune treatment. One crucial aspect is shaving my head beforehand. It is a decision I made not only to ease the transition but also to optimize the effectiveness of the treatment. Additionally, I have relied on products from DermaVitality, a brand I trust and have previously lauded in my blogs. Their gentle formulations have saved my sensitive skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and calm amidst the various treatments.

As I gear up for this next phase of my journey, I am filled with emotions - apprehension, hope, and a newfound sense of empowerment. Yes, there will be challenges along the way, but I'm ready to face them head-on, quite literally (lol). Each day, I grow more confident in my decision to embrace change and take control of my health. And while the road ahead may be long and arduous, I find solace in knowing I'm not alone. With my support system, trusted medical professionals, and the innovative technology of Optune, I'm ready to tackle whatever lies ahead, one day at a time. Watch soon for my Shaving Video.
