Has anyone else experienced a rash that comes and goes after getting the Mirena IUD?

I’ve been getting a rash on my face, neck, and arms. I think it comes around the time when I’m high in progesterone, but I’m not really sure. It will also make my lymph nodes swell when it gets really bad. (The lymph nodes on my neck by my ears.

I haven’t gotten a response from my oncologist saying anything about it.

Doctor Google says that it might be a sensitivity to progesterone? But I’m not sure. I’m nervous it’s cancer related.

I’ve read some research about high levels of B12 putting women at risk for endometrial cancer, or worsening existing cancer. I realized that my injected vitamin had B12, and when I asked my oncologist she said that it was fine. She also said that about my diet. All she said was to not pick up smoking.

Did your oncologist have you stop taking any medication, vitamins, or foods?
