Itching!

Hi All

Has anyone had trouble with itching and rashes during chemo? I’m scratching around my neck so much I was sure it would be all red and sore looking but there are only a few little rashy bumps which is good. Still itching though! Aloe Vera seems to calm it a little, any other ideas?

The gemcitabine gave me mega itching then a groin rash the first time, but thankfully not really since then. Fortunately it just lasted a couple of days but enough to me driving me mental. It was all over so couldn’t really try any creams etc.

Thanks Mousy

Fortunately it’s only around my face and neck (and a bit under my wig) so I’ll continue to slap on the Aloe Vera and hope that it goes away!

Hello. I had an unsightly itchy rash after Taxotere. It went away after about 10 days helped by anti histamines.

Take care
