Hi y'all joined macmillan in december but this is my first post! Really sorry for the length of it, if you read it all I am grateful...
Had my 3rd dose of chemo yesterday, my bloods have all came back clear no infection markers and all looked good... fast forward 24hrs I had to take my 17yr old to the dr this morning, he has had a bad rash since before christmas, (if you have a teenager son, its pandemic to get them to do anything if it dosnt involve gaming) he has scratch that much his skin is head to toe covered in lines of scabs, over scabs and has drew blood! Now to my complete shock he has been diagnosed with scabies and it turns out the rash I was told was chemo rash is infact scabies aswell!! My dr has given me all the creams to do the whole house, my question is do I still inform my team of what's going on?
Thank you for reading to the end
