Was at hospital to get my line flushed today, and also had app to see Dr, i mentioned to him that my mouth was sore, and my back & face were red & blotchy, his reply was, thats good ,as it shows my 1st cycle is working, that made me feel a lot better in myself, i can put up with this if thats the case, he prescribed , mouthwash & moisturiser ,i have used it and got some comfort, as even toothpaste was stinging my mouth, and my skin feels cooler too, just hope cycle 2 is ok, even tho i had a rough few days after the bottle was removed, at least i can chill out a bit at weekend, ready for Tuesday, as its a long day coming up, il let you know how i get on next week ,so have a relaxed weekend everyone & take care, X
My brothers has the same acne like rash to his face chest and back from the panitumubab. He has had to miss his second cycle which was due yesterday because he has an infection. Hopefully he can have it on Wednesday. I hope you are okay with cycle 2. Keep us posted and enjoy your weekend.
