Black spots

Developed a few black spots; one on my right index finger, left palm and left thigh. They look like pinch marks but are not raised or painful, and the biggest is about the same diameter as my toothbrush.

I feel well, with just the usual aches and twinges, us this common?

Have my last chemo next Tuesday so can find out then if required.

This is interesting... John had these too ..but he has WG... he had them about 10 years ago...but I believe you have PAN.... I have seen photos similar to this..and I think it may be called Ischemia ..localised areas of necrosis... i would certainly talk this over with your consultant.... John's improved as the treatment progressed.....
