I have had treatment for breast cancer( chemotherapy) and I am waiting to start readiotheraphy ( supposed to start next week) . Does anyone know about little red blood spots that have appeared on my trunk, legs and head? My friend seems to think this might be a blood disorder.
I am on two different and very high doses of anit biotics as treatment for cellulitus. Would this be connected?
I am no expert, but it does sound like a blood problem, after most of my chemos the bloods have been too low and I usually have an extra week off.
Last time my platelets were down and I was asked to keep an eye out for unexplained bruising or red/purple spots. It probably isn’t anything to worry about, but is probably worth phoning your chemo unit and asking them about the spots.
I finished chemo in October and I am supposed to start radiotherapy on Tuesday (I am under Dr Spooner at QE)
this condition has only come up in the last fews weeks but I did not pay much attention to it. Is it best to let Doc Spooner examine this next week? Is this something I should be concerned about?
