I was recently diagnosed with a superficial basal cell carcinoma and prescribed Aldara 5 cream, however I believe I've had a very bad reaction to the cream, blisters under my left eye, round my left nostril, in my mouth on my lips and red patches on left cheek. The spot being treated is to the left of my forehead.
Ive been to a London eye hospital who diagnosed viral conjunctivitis which my GP didn't agree and thought it may be ocular shingles. He referred me to an emergency eye clinic at my local hospital, doctor there doesn't think its shingles, but prescribed antiviral antibiotics and antihistamines in case it is the cream.
My question is has anyone else had such an adverse reaction to Aldara 5 cream?
