Tykerb Rash Is Better (AQUAPHOR HELPED ME)
My Last Few Threads I've Been Complaining About My Tykerb Rash. My Doc Had Prescribed Doxycycline But I Couldn't Tell It Helped Any, I Took This Medicine For At Least 5 Weeks And Although My Nurse Said My Rash Was Mild Compared To Others It Just Seemed To Me Like It Was Getting Worse. The Past 2 Weeks I Stopped Taking The Doxcycline And Started Using A Creme Called Aquaphor That I Used Way Back When I Was Doing Radiation. After Just 3 Days My Rash Improved Greatly. I Am Also Using An Anti-itch Creme. Now Its Been Almost 2 Weeks And My Rash Is Barely Noticeable. The Aquaphor Looks Like Vaseline, You Can Buy It At Wal-mart Or Any Drug Store. Now If I Could Just Get Over Being Tired All The Time....but I Guess One Battle At A Time
