Hi just read your post, it is frightening isn't it, I also had a rash from Caelyx, it was under my boobs and very itchy and sore, my onc said this is a side effect but have to keep an eye on it. Hope things settle down for you soon and you will be more comfortable. Take care

Hi it was also under my boobs so I thought it was my bras were tight so brought new ones did they put you on vitamin b 6 tablets to calm it down and did you manage to finish your treatment thanks also for reply
Hi I went to my gp about my rash and she to,d me it was a sweat rash which she gave me cream for!!!
No I didn't finishe treatment for Caelyx it didn't work for me, I had quite,a few of the horrible side effects sore mouth and throat, sensitive to heat, hands and feet were red but in myself I felt well if that makes sense. Because it wasn't working my onc didn't put me on vitb6.
as you know we are all different and there are ladies I've spoken to who have responded well to Caelyx
Take care

Hope things get better for you love,any reaction is scary,
Happy Christmas

HI Bobby,
I have just finished 6 months of caelyx one every 4 weeks.
Part of the side effect was a rush all over my body and blisters under my arms.
My oncologist gave me steroids before each caelyx this cleared up the rush and blister,
I have had other side effects like my toe nails are falling off, my hands are red and feel like paper cuts, I soak them in cold water and moisturizer as much as possible.
With my toe nails I also soak them in cold water with bi carob soda and when dry with a eye dropper use tea tree oil to stop any infection.
I know this sound bad but I managed to still do my part time job the whole time I was on caelyx and my energy was good.
Also it was only one a month,
I wish you all the best.

Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones from down under
