Subject: Erbitux Reactions -- Any Ideas on Treating Rash
Date: 12/31/2005
Hi, I started Erbitux four weeks ago. First treatment - no reactions. Second treatment --
major rash on chest and back, scalp covered with itchy bumps and best of all a wopper case of acne covering a large portion of my face.

I would be interested in hearing how other people are handling these side effects. The itch is really horrific and making me a little crazy.

I started treatment 3 week ago. Tomorrow will be treatment #3. The first week no signs. 2 days after the 2d, my face started to get bumps and scalp got itchy and bumpy. My face now looks like a pepperoni pizza. and my scalp iswaking me up at night because of itch.

I went to the Cancer treatment center today and they gave me 2 antibiotics : doxycycline hycl 100 and a topical: I don't know what to expect but they said don't expect miricles...
