Good evening everyone,
Over the last week or so I've developed a few red patches of skin which are flaky on top and just under 1cm in size. In the last 3 days I've also developed red areas on my cheeks with little red blobs on them. I get a red face, neck and upper chest on day 2, which Piriton helps, and usually clears up by day 3, but this is new. Has anyone had these symptoms. The first red area was actually a harmless small heart-shaped seb. keratosis (I had my doctor check it in the summer!), which is now slightly larger and red. This happened suddenly this week. I presume that the chemo has altered it's chemistry/growth(?), but don't know.....
I'm down for Paclitaxel number 7 tomorrow, but combined with everything else am wondering about having it now. I know that you can't say whether to have it, but I wondered about the skin issue? xx
I've had 2 Paclitaxel and have come out in little spots and red patches on my nose and a little on my cheeks. My skin is also very dry and flakey. In fact I look like Rudolph at the moment so very seasonal! I tried antiseptic cream which works for a little while but then it comes back. I'm trying aqueous cream now. At least it's very moisturising and has no scent.
Babs
