Scalp itch....anyone else?
 
Hi everyone

I'm still doing my Herceptin every 3 weeks and I'm on Arimidex....

I don't know which one is doing this (I think the Arimidex) but the back of my scalp above the nape of my neck is so itchy and red its driving me CrAzY!

The rest of my scalp has a little dandruff but not a lot.....I did not do the cold cap during chemo.

Ive tried all sorts of OTC stuff....next stop dermatologist. Anyone else experience this?

Hi, congrats on completing chemo; you're in the home stretch!

Can I assume your hair is growing back? I remember bad itching but I washed my hair with sulfate free shampoo (same stuff I used before cheno) and made sure I conditioned it. It did help.
