Did your husband have any side effects from the erbitux? My son is on it and his face becomes very red and burns.

It’s been a while now since the erbitux. As I recall he had some nausea, but the worst side effect was his fingertips and toe tips became very sensitive - as if they had been rubbed on fine sandpaper, and they cracked. It was quite unpleasant.

He passed in September 2021. I really must get started on the book. I had forgotten about the fingers and toes until just now.
