acne herceptin

I Have Had 3 Weks Of Taxol And Herceptin, And Am Tolerating It Okay, Except This Nasty Acne That Has Developed. It Has Really Started To Affect My Self Image. I Have Read That Herceptin Can Give You An Acne Like Rash, This Is Full Blown Yucky Acne. Has Anyone Else Had This, And Does It Go Away? My Skin Was In Great Shape During A/c.
