I have been having a very bad rash all over my body for several weeks. Doctor said to stop I-Brance. Itching is awful. Feel like I have poison oak. Having an MRI today so may change drugs. Anyone else experience severe itching?

    Hi Petronella, and welcome to Breastcancer.org!

    We're so very sorry to hear you're experiencing this uncomfortable side effect. According to our main Breastcancer.org site's page on Itching as a side effect, it's possible you could be having an allergic reaction to one of your medications. Hopefully your doctor will be able to sort things out and get you on something that your body won't react so severely to.

    We are thinking of you! Please keep us posted on what you find out and how you're doing!

    I have been having rashes and severe itching for about 6 months on ibrance. Trying different creams and therapies. Have seen a couple of dermatologists as well.
