It really is radiation sickness. (After my breast cancer surgery, I had more radiation, which led to radiation burns on my skin - skin burns occur most often in folds where skin touches skin. I described it to my friend who's a nuke tech in the Navy - he is never at risk of getting enough rads to affect him that way. And another person I knew who was an astrophysicist working with neutrinos. But modern medicine has figured out how to use a linear accelerator to work miracles.
