So woke up this morning itchy. VERY very very very itchy. Looked in the mirror and realized I had a rash all over my back, and some of my tummy. As with anything we put a call into my oncologist. I was hoping I was just crazy, and it was nothing, but noooooo. Saw the doctor and it was decided that yes indeed, this is Yervoy related. They put me on high dose of steroids and benadryl. They also told me that with this its fast spreading, and can get angry very quickly. If it continues to get worse after steroids Im to call the doctor in the morning. GREAT. More steroids.
They were not kidding when they say it gets angry and spreads quick. By the time we got home Im covered. My tummy, waist, chest, back, and shoulders are covered in a hive like rash. Im so itchy!!! I just took my first does of the steroids. Hopefully this will go down. Until then I just suffer. What a way to start a lovely weekend. It can only get better right?
