Hi there
been awhile since I've been on line, well after 6 months of being bald from the chemo, and then 7 weeks of radiation (finished 20/5/2011) my hair has returned, now about 2cm long all over and the colour.....the silver fox look, not quite the platinum blonde look - after being relatively dark haired all my life, although the past few years I have been supporting the hair dresser's wages bill with on going "root treatment and foils", the colour of my new hair has not surprised me! must admit I gave up wearing "head wear mid May - so over scarves etc that my husband encouraged me not to cover up as the "short hair styles" actually suited me fortunately and have had compliments from complete strangers about my new "hair do"! Feeling pretty good now that treatment is all over with, now just the regular checks, my first one tomorrow - been 6 weeks since finished radiation.
as for radiation - my skin coped very well, and didn't blister and has healed well
