Hey SamI am glad you are doing reasonably well sweety. Bel McKenna had major mouth and throat issues I think so she may be able to give you some feed back on this.I think you will find that most of us pink sisters pretty much started losing our hair 12 - 14 days following our first chemo. It just shows how quick it goes to work killing off those cancer cells (and good cells unfortunately) so that is a good thing.I know you say you were prepared for the hair loss which I know I was but you are allowed to have a lil cry and grieve for the loss if you want. Remember it does grow back and normally starts around the time of your last chemo. It may come back a different colour and curly so that is always exciting to look forward to.Keep looking after yourself luvy, lots of love,Mich xoxoxo
