Hi all
I have been feeling a bit shabby for few weeks. Put it down to time of year and the inevitable colds etc.
However I woke up yesterday with fluid filled blisters covering my body in various places. They are itchy, tender and in numerous places. I booked an appointment with the GP yesyerday who told me it looked like chicken pox prescribed Aciclovir, ran bloods and told me to come back if it gets even the slightest bit worse.
He seemed quite concerned about it, he is usually very calm. He also told me to call my Haematology Team and point out his findings and see what they're steer was. I called my specialist nurse's secretary and explained everything yesterday but the nurse hasn't got back yet, and from experience I am not holding my breath.
I just wondered if this is chicken pox, treatment or something else. Just as I have only been on Bosutinb for a few month.
Has anyone else experienced this? I'm achey, neck stiff, obviously blistered, cold like nose, headache, and worn out.
How concerned should I be if it is chicken pox with the CML?
Thanks.
John
