I’ve been on Tamoxifen since January 1st and have occasionally had small, itchy blisters appearing on and between my fingers which dry up after a couple of days leaving dry patches. Then last Friday I felt a bad itch on my back (in the middle of the bit that is still really quite numb since LD flap surgery), reached behind and rubbed it through my clothing with the side of my hand. My hand came away really wet and a wet patch on my dress so I looked in the mirror and found a large red, raw and slightly weeping sore, about the size of a 50p on my back.
Didn’t think too much about it till yesterday when I had an appointment with my GP as a follow up having been prescribed anti depressants so I just mentioned it all to her. She told me that she didn’t thing that the hand and the back blisters were in any way linked, that the ones on my hands were eczema, but that she was very concerned about the one on my back and thought it might be linked to the tamoxifen. She gave me antibiotic cream to put on as she said it looked infected and told be I had to go back in a week to get it reassessed. She said something about possibly needing biopsy ing.
I’m trying to keep away from googling but I don’t know what to think.
Has anyone had anything similar?
