As I have said before, my hair has not so much fallen out as thinned considerably. Consequently I have had to have a hair cut, which my lovely hairdresser did a couple of days ago. So although my hair is looking very thin it is now looking a bit tidier.
Hair loss due to chemotherapy obviously affects all the hair not just that on your head. Interestingly my left eyebrow is very sparse whilst my right one is hardly affected at all. Also I didn't bother shaving my legs before I started on my treatment as I assumed that it would fall out. Well it has, a bit, but the hair that has not disappeared from my legs has continued to grow apace such that I have sparsely but very shaggy leg hair, some of which are up to about and inch and a half long!
It is all very strange but as I have pointed out the drugs that I am being given are not all chemotherapy drugs like last time, so I presume that this is why my hair loss has been less and more erratic.
