Guest guest Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 Hi everyone, I have something that has been going on with me lately. I've been getting strange " breakouts " on the outside of my upper arms and on the top of the forearm. The breakouts are like pimples but they resemble goosebumps. My arms are also getting really blotchy with reddish pigmenty dots. Plus, since I don't go in the sun anymore, I am really fair, so it shows up more and now I'm very self conscious wearing anything short sleeved. I usually get these breakouts when I get the " Gleevec " run down, fatigued feeling. I get this when I overdo it with my activities, and I pay the price of it when I'm nearly horizontal the next day. I realize that Gleevec blocks C-Kit but was just wondering if anyone else in the group gets these breakouts? I " ve been taking Gleevec 400 mg for 1 1/2 years now. Any and all input would be greatly appreciated! Lynn (Snickersunny) Dx 12/10/03 PCRU Zavie #692 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
