Breast cancer rash

Last reply: 25 June 2013 22:39

Hi,

I wonder if anyone can help. I finished chemo for Breast cancer (fmc) 3 weeks ago. I now have a rash of red spots on the sole of my foot and wonder could it be chemo related and should I ask the chemo nurses or should I go to the gp. And does it sound familiar to any one

Thanks
Sunny

Dear Sunny,

I am sorry that you have not heard from anyone on the message board yet I hope you will hear from others soon. In relation to your foot rash I suggest that you contact your oncology nurse and they may be able to arrange for a doctor from the medical team to have a look at it and offer you treatment for it if they feel is required. I hope that it improves soon.

Kind regards,
Cancer Information Nurse

Best to ring the cancer nurse but chemo does funny things to your skin, probably nothing serious, but best get it checked.
