ginnyde Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Earl has been very lucky concerning the rash, only has had some on his nose. Aveeno lotion seems to help him. I think other people have mentioned Utterly Smooth (or something like that) I think keeping it moist is important. Ginny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Ry Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Christy, I have been on Iressa for a year. There are two things that work for me. One is a moisturizer lotion for my face. The brand I use is St Ives Whipped Silk. It seems to keep the bumps down. It does keep the dry skin confortable. I use it twice a day after washing my face. I have a lot of bumps in my hair and dry scalp. For that area I use a cream rinse. I am not sure about the brand name. Knowing me it is probably the cheapest one on the shelf. My latest PET shows that Iressa is working well for me. I wish your dad the same luck I have had. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
