Do you know the cause of the rash? I ask because when I got Lyme Disease this spring instead of the typical bulls eye I had a full body rash. I am not suggesting you have Lyme but that getting rid of the rash may require treating an underlying condition.

Good luck.

Have not been outside much, have a torn rotator cuff, that’s put the stop on some of my outdoor activities. And this rash has made me tired.

All monoclonals I can recall can cause skin reactions, even though they may be used to actually treat certain ones. If Dupixent is the only recent change, and you can't rule out other skin aggravating reasons, it could be the drug.

If you are asking about using Dupixent, to treat a rash you recently developed, I would see a derm, and ask about having a biopsy tested for CLL infiltration in addition to the usual testing.

Thank you for your reply, I personally think it’s the Ibrutinib. See our Hematologist on Monday,

12/12/22,

see an Dermatologist on Thursday 12/15/22. Doctors, we have a wonderful team.

It’s our social life 😊
