Loss of eyelashes
Hi everyone,
It is about 8 weeks since my last round of chemo, during which I lost most of my body hair with the exception of my eyebrows and eyelashes. Now, 8 weeks on my eyebrows have thinned out...

Thanks all. Yr comments are v helpful. I finished Five months of chemo last week and though my lashes had been thinning I got away with using liner (as well as eyebrow pencil). I then lost all my lashes and The last two days I've had styes. First in one eye then th other. The chemist gave me an antibiotic cream but hey are so sore and effect my vision. It's worse than the chemo. ..or maybe just that I thought I was over the worst when chemo finished. Also have a chest infection which is depleting my energy. I try to keep telling myself that if this is the worst it will get I will be fine. I don't always believe it but I try.
