My husband has stage 4 RCC with metastasis to his remaining adrenal gland, lung nodules, chest lymph node tumour, he has recently been complaining of severe skin itching to his head and to his left arm. He is not on any treatments currently for his cancer, but I am wondering whether the itching may be a sign of changes to the adrenal gland tumour?

has anyone else any experience or knowledge of this at all?

  • Hi and a warm welcome to the online community

    I'm sorry to hear about the discomfort your husband is in with severely itchy skin. It must be very unpleasant, to put it mildly, for him.

    Although I'm not a member of this group I noticed that your post hadn't had any responses yet. This could be because no one in this group has experienced this or that the person who has hasn't seen your post yet. By replying to you it will 'bump' it back to the top of the page where it will be more easily noticed.

    If you don't get any response you could post you question in ask a nurse and one of the specialist nurses will respond within 2 working days.

    I hope you find a solution for this itchiness soon
