Hi all,
i am on the above immunotherapy and have developed a rash just above my ankles at the back of both my legs I think it might be atopic dermatitis also though not rash related my feet feel they are burning. My axinitib has just been increased from 5mg to truce a day so assume it’s related to my immune system and hopefully will settle on a bit . I will check with my doctor next week but wonder if anyone els has had this and if so was there anything that helped . I have just started to take an over the counter antihistamine and put on some 0.5% hydrocortisone cream.
I would love to hear your experiences.
best wishes
Trish
Hi Trish
I'm sorry to read about the side effects you're experiencing, it sounds very unpleasant but I'm sure your doctor will be able to help.
I don't have the experience you're looking for but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.

Dear Latchbrook, l have noticed you helpfully move some post "to the top" to get a response. Are you able to do this ordinarily or do you need to hold a position within Macmillan. Whichever way it is you have done it for me, helpfully. So thank you and to Squidgyhug also l do not have any experience of what you are suffering but l wish you strength and help. Adrian. P.S. l hope Squidgyhug and Trish are one and the same otherwise I'm afraid l am well and truly very very confused.com. Regards Adrian
Hi Adrian
Anyone can effectively 'move' a post to the top of the discussion list as it's just the way the forums work that the most recent activity on a post automatically puts it at the top
Hi Suffolkflyer , how are you doing ? Yes …Trish and Squidgy hug are one and the same …..I just like to confuse ️
Oh Chester fc I am sorry to hear about your tummy upset, I had a day of sickness and the GP gave me some anti sickness tablets which worked beautifully but sent me straight off to sleep . I hope this treatment is ok for you and I hope your itchy scalp and legs get better. Take care.
I'm doing fine, ' specially now l am not confused.
