Hello @dedehans, People on other targeted therapies can develop rashes or sores even after years of treatment too. It's so strange. I've heard that some can find relief through a steroid cream. How are you feeling? Were you able to find something that provided some relief?

Not really yet. It comes and goes. I find that my lovely hot showers can make the itching spots increase . I have tried the steroid cream (triamincinolone acetonide ) and a lotion (ammonium lactate 12%) and I just itch more.Going to the dermatologist this week for annual skin check so will see if she has any suggestions to offer.
