Hi i am new to this. My husband just started treatment for aml. He has gone through the first seven days of chemo and he is covered with a rash. The dr.'s are telling him it is a reaction from the chemo and it is normal. By the looks of some of the posts on here it is something new. I would be very interested in hearing from some of you that have found relief from this rash. Right now they have stopped giving him benadryl and are giving him something else for the itching. I can't remember the name of it right now. He also said he feels like he has the creepy crawly's all over his back and stomach. It was a little better tonight but he has numerous places that are open now and i am petrified of infection. He has also had a lot of petechiae and they have given him two transfusions of platelets so far. Anything info anyone could give me right now would be helpful.
