No hair thanks to Taxotere!

Hi Gayle, I finished taxotere at the end of March 2011, and have now had 7 haircuts. It did take many months to come back, but I stopped wearing my wig at the end of September last year. My hair is still curly, and I am having a haircut about every 7 to 8 weeks, and it is about 15 cm long. My eyebrows fell out well after my hair did, and though some improvement, are still very patchy. I have become good at drawing on eyebrows with a powder now, and my eye lashes didn't fall out. I did suffer badly from watery eyes, which is really due to very dry eyes. I found that liquid tears or gel was very soothing. I still have dry eyes, but this was a problem I had long before chemo, although chemo did exacerbate it . Be patient, as I am sure you will get your hair back. My hair follicles started to darken about 12 weeks after my last chemo, and then it came in quickly. Good luck with it all. Love Chris xx
