I've had some skin breakouts (not exactly a rash, more scattered spots), but the last few weeks I've suddenly developed itches all over a few times, like I'm lying in a bed of biting bugs. I've taken benadryl and then slept it off. Think it could be Kisqali reaction to sun exposure as I've been in the garden piddling around? Anyone have this reaction?

    I’m very new to all of this. I’ve been on kisqali since the end of March and after a few weeks of taking it I suddenly noticed an itching on my left ankle. A few nights later it happened again on my right ankle. And then again on my right upper arm. Only happens at night and kinda welts up. Here’s the kicker, I have tattoos in all 3 places where it itched! I googled it and only found where HIV meds will cause itchy tattoos. My onc said he never heard of anybody having that side effect

    Still getting insignificant random bumps during cycle. Benadryl gel lotion helps with the itching.
