Side effects

  I'll be off Afinitor for the third and last week while hoping to get my skin to settle down.  My arms are healing well after the prednisone but other areas that  are more mild, but still itchy enough to keep me awake, have not settled down yet.  Once we go back on Afinitor, if the rash comes back then we'll use prednisone even though it's not generally recommended with Afinitor (or any steroid).  That is a general rule but it had worked for me so we'll try them together to try to subdue the itchy/rash side-effect.
