And talking of scalp/skin problems--has anyone gone right thro chemo fine, then found that their skin is itchy, prone to spots and boils afterwards??
I have a place on my scalp which has intense itching, and if I forget or am distracted, find myself scratching and taking the top off a spot!
My back is also in a mess.
