Thank you all for the info. I have been looking up everything that i can. I am concerned about the "rash". I am hoping it is not like a burn because he has had his share of radiation to both left and right side of the head and neck and also had radiation seeds inplanted. They are going to start him on a combo of Erbitux and Cisplatin tomorrow. I am going to ask the Oncologist if he should start him on Minocycline because in cases this has helped when given during the first few weeks of treatment. My husband's skin is very sensitive and i do not want an infection on top of everything else. He has never had any kind of chemo treatment so i am just trying to find out as much as i can to hopefully avoid any complication that might occur. Just as you all know, if i can avoid any additional discomfort i will do everything in my power to do so!!!! smile
