Hi
ihave just finished preop Flot chemo, quite bad rah on face neck and chest. Has anyone experienced this side effect and have advice
Hello Mindful
Am sorry that you have a bad rash on your face, neck and chest after finishing your FLOT chemo. I had a different type of chemo but it did affect my skin and it became blotchy, irritated, red and I had a rash at times. I would advise mentioning it to your doctor who may be able to prescribe a mild steroid cream or something similar to help clear it up. My doctor did for me.
I hope it resolves soon. In the meantime if there is anything else we can help with please do let us know.
Jane
