Moms face continues to remain swollen and the severe redness and the teary eye does not let up. Had seen Onc and she said poss. she has cushingoid poss. and its a good chance its from the decadron, but she has only been on it IV the day of TX every Wed. had stopped the oral weeks ago. We now have to see a dermatologist for the redness/dry/rash/peeeling face has anyone had this experience?

Continued hugs and prayers your way...

P.S.- chemo is Taxotere
