Guest guest Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 I too have experenced blisters/rashes. I was also sent to my Dermotologist,and biopsied. For me they were caused as another side effect of Gleevec,water pills,and the sun. It. turned out to be an allergic reaction to hydoroclorithiazide. An ingredent in all water pills, and when in the sun, even for several minutes it causes the rash.It's on my back, and legs, they itch, and when I break them open they are like pox sores. My Dr. perscribed a cream (Clobetasol Propionate usp,0.05)and it has helped a lot. I have also found something for the neasuea from Gleevec. They are called Queasy-pops, they are all natural and ,drug free. you can ck them out on (www.queasypop.com.) Also I found a deoderant to use if any of you have had breast cancer and can't use regular deodrants, or tell a friend.You can find it at Walmart or drug stores.(Naturally Fresh Deodrant crystal) (www.tccd.com). Hope this helps a little it has helped me and I wanted to pass this along. Health to all Eagledove(Kay) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
