Hi folks hope everyone is ok. I have just finished my first cycle of chemo and have developed pretty bad facial acne and white heads any tips on how to manage this, it’s pretty widespread and sore - the hospital team did mention this as a side effect and gave me some cream but it literally burns when I put it on! I believe it’s the Panitumumab that I am having which causes the skin reaction. Any advice greatly appreciated - thank you
Hi JimBob99
I didn't get this side effect with chemo for a different type of cancer, 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.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
