David-
That's what I was thinking. I haven't had chemo or radiation since July so I know it's not that. I just didn't know if other meds could cause a reaction and maybe it's not an allergic reaction but just my body being overly sensitive? I guess I was wonering if this would happen every time I start a new medication. Benadryl hasn't done much to help yet (the reaction started Saturday) I'm still quite red and itchy! I'm not too concerned about it but I definitely look kind of goofy and I don't want to start the new med I'll be taking in place of the one I was taking until this clears up in case the same thing happens again! ARG! I get all the crazy problems!
Stephanie, 23, SCC on the right side of my tongue, surgery on 5-19-08, over half my tongue removed, free flap constructed from my forearm, bilateral neck dissection, one positive node. Radiation (32) and chemo (carboplatin) started on 6-16-08. Recurrence 4/09 in lungs.
**** Stephanie passed away 12.15.09.... RIP our dear friend****
