Ouch, I hope that is not painful. I can't say that I have gotten sores except where I scratched too much due to itching (my derm says it is likely CA related but my onco says it is not related to my NHFL). I will say that at my age, I have had quite the variety of skin issues which apparently happens to many of us older folks. Different types of growths that are mostly benign - but some have turned out to be basal or squamous skin CAs. You can't always tell by just looking which are normal or concerning, I really encourage you to have a specialist do a skin check. Keep bringing it up to your Drs (and maybe ask for a referral - to a dermatologist or derm/oncologist.) I think most side effects that are bothersome but not critical tend to be put aside as the Drs focus on the more serious stuff. Also Drs tend to focus on what they know / have seen before / and just their area of expertise, So if what is causing your sores is rare or something outside their experience, you may have to seek additional help.

Thank you Rebecca3 and KellyS...appreciate your insight and the wishes ..I got a few new sores one on my other foot by toe and the others are up on my leg...

Glad to hear that you aren't experiencing any other symptoms. I'm not sure where ur located or if they spoke to you yet in regards to chemo but if they do give you an option for a port catheter ---It is the best and most convenient way of infusion/Blood work etc. Sending you lots of positive thoughts and energy

My experiences are just loss of weight and mild fatigue Still waiting to start chemo but hav ebeen defined as Mantel cell lymphoma Other than these very mild symptoms i have no other symptoms and an very well Bob Scouller
