I am new to this site, searching for answers!
I finished chemo (Taxel and Cyclophosphamide) 7 weeks ago and am in the middle of radiation. I lost all hair on my body except eyebrows and eyelashes, ...
Thank you Elisha, you never really know what surprise is going to pop up next! I was prepared for the hair loss, which happened about ten days after my first chemo, but I really thought that nearly two months down the track I would have been spared. I was always so happy to have kept my eyebrows and eyelashes, and to lose them now is a bit of a blow. I like to think I'm a young 42, and all these physical changes are challenging to say the least, as you would know :-).
I went to a make up girl today who sold me some Napoleon eyeshadow to use to fill in my brows, and she showed me how to use it and it looks better. I will have to wait and see what happens next!
Thank you so much for replying, I hope your recovery is problem free. I am 18 radiations down, 12 to go.Take care and all the best x
