I am in my 8th day of chemo (AC) and day before yesterday my face broke out all over---today my scalp. The chemo nurses have never heard of this????? Help! I have a recurrence of breast cancer (mastectomy 7 years ago)---the recurrence appeared as bumps, sores along incision lines.


I ate some chocolate ice cream the day the bumps broke out. Did I do this to myself?

Have you talked to one of your doctors? Another idea is just to go to his office so that they can actually see what it looks like. And finally, especially since this is the weekend, you can go to the ER and have them check it out.
