Well, I actually shave my arms and legs because it makes the use of sunscreen so much easier. As you know, skin cancer is an increased risk for all the immuno-compromised community. I am not nearly as disciplined as @loribmt but I do use a Gilette Mach 3 blade and rinse it clean with a quick splash of alcohol.

I have had a variety of nicks on my face which also motivated the beard. They do take longer to heal than before but nothing has grown into a life threatening infection.

Best always,
s!
