Chemo fluff!!!

Last reply: 20 January 2013 21:51

Well girls got very excited this morning as I have something growing on my head!! Couldn't say it's hair but it's something. Think maybe because I had a 20% reduction in my last 2 chemos the regrowth is quicker. Happy days think it'll be a long time before I've a pony tail but I'm happy with my chemo fluff lol xxx

Doing ok now!
First weekend was mega rough. Then I got a horrible headcold (despite being a social hermit!) and ended up going to caredoc this morn. The wasn't too concerned but put me on antibiotics as a precaution. So you could say that chemo one has certainly been a baptism of fire!! But despite that today's the first day that I actually have energy and feel like me! So that's a result!!! I'm just hoping they all won't be that rough??

Ah sorry to hear that. It's a divil when you get something I was the same when I got the vomiting bug. It sets you back a bit. As my husband says about the chemo you have to weather the storm until the bad time passes over which it does. It's just hard when you're going through it. When do you think you'll lose your hair? Please God the first one was the worst. Xxx
