Hi all!
New here, just recently diagnosed end of January. Received my first scan since diagnoses yesterday. From what i see looks like treatment of Kisqali and Letrozole are helping shrink things. My question is… about 3 weeks ago I had this rash start around where they inserted the titanium tumor markers. It was kind of itchy but since then I have developed a rash in that area. Some bumps are raised, and some are not. I don’t know what it is. Skin cancer? I’m so scared.
Dear Janaro,
So sorry you are feeling so anxious at the moment, if your not feeling right about the way you feel or look, it’s time to contact your breast cancer team for a quick check to put your mind at rest.
Fingers crossed for a good outcome, wishing health and happiness ahead. Please let us know how you’re getting along.
Hugs Tili 
Hi janaro
Thanks for posting.
It sounds as though you are having a difficult time at the moment and it’s understandable that you are feeling scared because of the rash which has appeared on your breast.
We cannot say what may be causing this rash, but it may be good to contact your breast care team as @tili says for a quick check to put your mind at rest. Your breast care nurse or treatment team can take a look at the area on your breast and advise you on any treatment you may need.
