Hi, my first skin mets came out just above my mastectomy scar, it just started out as a small rash then gradually got bigger, I tried all of the lotions and potions I could get my hands on to shift it but it would not budge, I had it biopsied and it was skin mets, it was treated with Xeloda and went away quickly My next outbreak came down the side of my necx from my ear and while I was on Xeloda so changed to Navelbine and it went away.My recent patch came on my remaining breast and had radiation with Xeloda but it did not shift it so now I am on Hercetin/Xeloda/Cyclosphomide and not sure how it is because also used a cream Xeloda based and my breast went red but a few patches were rough and peeled off leaving my breast smooth but still all redish so have to wait for a biopsy to see where I am at. First and second skin mets weren't itchy but this time round they were. Only a biopsy will make sure.
Love & Hugs Lyn
