Hi Tanya, I was diagnosed in early December and have finished AC and Taxol four weeks ago. I will be starting radiotherapy at Sunshine Hospital at the end of July. As upsetting it was to lose my hair after the first AC in a way it was a relief because of the burning feeling on my scalp once my hair fell out this stopped and then my eyebrows started burning... They fell out and most of my eyelashes have gone as well.
Towards the end of Taxol my hair has started to grow. I am waiting for it to thicken it up a bit and then the scarves and the wig will go. Can't wait!
PS I noticed that you live in Point Cook I live not too far away in Tarneit. Maybe we could meet for coffee sometime? Regards Cheryle :)
