      Has anyone else diagnosed as Stage IV with brain mets had flushed skin with prolonged blanching? We had our four week post SRS check yesterday and the Radiation Oncologist took an interest in it. He is the one who had prescribed Dexamethasone for brain swelling  after the SRS, so had it been due to the steroids I think he would have mentioned it. I've asked my husband to check with his Primary Onc but he's hesitant. We start Yervoy on Monday. Thoughts? Thank you.
