Chemotherapy and auto-immune conditions
Hi, I’m hoping this forum will generate some information and experience about the effects of chemotherapy on someone living with an auto-immune condition. I’m 67 and have had alopecia for many years. ...
@pruec I got lichen schlerosis which may or may not have been chemo induced. Dr doesn't know but did say that chemo can cause auto immune diseases. I have no idea what happens if you already have an auto immune disease. As @AllyJay says, perhaps consult a rheumatologist. Your Onco may not be the best person to consult on this as they like to downplay side effects. All the best
