Something is wrong here. I had the full eight doses of Erbitux and even though it prevented my skin from healing and gave me classic second degree burn requiring Vigilon dressing, once I stopped, the skin grew back in less than a month. My CCC MO said I had the worst side effects he had ever seen or read about but I recovered regular skin by the end of the second month.
Unfortunately IMO the Erbitux was much better at blocking the growth factor of my facial skin than it was on starving the tumor which is why I switched to carboplatin the next time around. My sympathy to J, the side effects are nasty and painful.
