Re: Erbitux seems to be working for me
Glad to hear the Erbitux is working for you. Its doing a good job for my wife as well. I just wanted to let you know Tami suffered fro mthe rash as well but her dermatologist sitched her to Minocycline and she takes it twice a day. She also has some type of steroid cream she applies and her rash has cleared up amazingly. Her onc had her on Doxy but that he was switching due to her results. Hope it works for other folks as well.
Good Luck,
Bob

Re: Erbitux seems to be working for me
Fabulous news Belle!
And Erbitux may be back on the table for some KRAS mutant patients too. New studies show that some of the mutations still do well on Erbitux - just not all of them do. So for us mutants, we may still have Erbitux in our arsenal.
