The void between chemo and radiation ... why do I feel so blah?

I also would find it interesting when I told my chemo onc of a side effect and she'd say 'never heard of that one'. Then I would ask on here and heaps of ppl would say they had it.

Well, that went way off topic! Thinking of you Lisa. Feel free to PM me any time if you want to let your hair down in private! At this point in time I have no eyelashes, two hairs where my eyebrows were and peach fuzz. Nothing to let down! Hair is actually falling out again since docetaxel 3 rounds. It was growing back after first three of FEC. Least of my worries but certainly looks horrible if you cry...worse than Kim K lol
