Danielle Fishel, known for her role as Topanga Lawrence on Boy Meets World, has finished her breast cancer treatment. While celebrating this milestone, she acknowledges the painful side effects of radiation, including sunburn, itching, and discomfort. Fishel details her experience with radiation and the recovery process, emphasizing the ongoing emotional and physical journey she's facing.
Danielle Fishel has officially completed her treatment for breast cancer — but not without some painful side effects.
“I did 15 rounds of whole breast radiation and then five rounds of targeted radiation, which just means they focus in on the very small area where my cancer was versus treating the entire breast,” she explained. However, her recovery from radiation has proven to be a bit more difficult. She further described her post-treatment side effects, saying it “hurts to wear a bra, hurts to not wear a bra. It just hurts to sleep on my side, hurts to sleep, period. Hurts to be awake.”
Her doctors also told her she’d begin to feel better in “two to three months,” and to “work out and drink water.” Fishel joked of her doctor’s orders: “I’m sorry, you want me to be tired and take care of myself?” However, she confirmed that she “did start working out.”
