My husband took Octreotide shots for about 18 months, side effects slightly looser stools & then started breaking out into face & neck rashes so he was switched to Lanreotide. He has been fine with this new shot . We have been fighting this since 2021

In my reading that sounds like "flushing", affecting neck and face as result of carcinoma tumor?? Our oncologist describes the rash as paraneoplastic, related to this? Dermatologist sending away biopsy but not very sure that it's a dermatitis of some sort?
