Hi did anyone have a spotty face with docetaxcol or herceptain or perjeta ? My face is all spotty never had spots even when I was a teenager. I’ve had a sore mouth scabs up my nose now I’ve got a spotty face it’s a nightmare just wondering if this happened to anyone else ? X x

Hi Julia
When I had docetaxol I got a really spotty face on day 7 of every 3 weekly cycle! It was almost like acne and scabby up my nose -very attractive not! My GP gave me a cream called Metrogel which seemed to help although the spots lasted about 5 days each cycle.
How many docetaxol have you had now?
Take care, love Helen x
