I have had 3 cycles of FEC, last one on 8th September. Yesterday my face felt very tight and dry, have woken up this morning to find what looks like a few angry red acne spots on one side of my face. Does anyone have any experience/ solutions for this, or do I need to see a Doctor? Many thanks

Hello mitteny,

Yes I had this the third week of my three week cycle with everyone of my 8 FEC-T chemo. They only lasted a week each time and they came just on my face. I had them near my eyes occasionally and found a cold flannel compress helped. Mention it to the oncologist if they get to be too much. Hope that helps you feel you are not on your own.

Take care xxx
