HELP please!! First time on taxotere

Hi
Sorry to hear you're having a bad time. It's one of the most difficult cancer drugs. There are lots of good mouth washes available that really work. As for the rash myself and Chelee had horrendous rashes on our face and I also had it on my arm. I tried steroid cream which didn't work but then got an antihistamine and it totally cleared it! What I found out very quickly though was to stay out of the sun totally as it made the rash much much worse! I also felt very tearful and upset and now wished I had got some meds for it rather than suffering!
Hugs from England
