Hello all, Rod has developed painful ears since his last infusion. The nurse was fascinated at the synchronicity of the slight swelling, on the top tips of both ears. He likened himself to Dr. Spock. This side effect has coincided with his very sore and raw mouth and inner nostrils. The nurse prescribed antibiotics for his ears and a sore finger tip. However, the oncologist told him yesterday that there's no infection as these are all caused by the chemo, so the antibiotics are a waste of time.
Just wondering if anyone else on FOLFOX has had similar side effects?
TIA,
Lorraine
