Doxil Side Effects

Subject: Doxil Rash
Date: 06/28/2006
Hello,

I have been off Doxil for about 4 months. I think I had a total of 9 treatments. My CA-125 see-sawed, that is it went up and down but always around 200. Now, I am Carboplatin, the rash, blisters, red radiation "glow"--everything has entirely disappeared. So, that is good to know, that it does go away after you get off treatement.

Yes, I recall having blister-like lesions, but not on my head and not one at a time. I would have a whole slew of them, on my upper abdomen and also elbows? I would get them wherever I was leaning on something. I used to get them where my pajama seems were while I was sleeping. But then, the blisters went away after 5 or so treatments. It seemed to manifest with the blisters during the earlier part of the treatment. I only had the rash and redness on my hands and feet and I don't recall any blisters during the latter part.

I hope this helped you. I am so glad to be rid of that rash. The IV Decadron definitely helped. They gave this to me prior to the treatment. Also, the DMSO cream and Vitamin E cream were the best creams IMO.

Blessings,
Kathleen
