oh that’s great x. Is it growing back like normal xx

i have my first chemotherapy next week and really scared 

especially hair loss and side effects. 

Mines breast cancer too. Had one operation in November xx 

Hair loss   I broke my heart  when my hair fell out   my hair  was down to my waist   my daughter said mum it's just hair  lol it didnt help but now that  its fallen out again  I am at the stage yeah it's only hair   hate the wigs so  have lots of hats.

The worst bit was losing my eyelashes how vain am I? daughter said get false   lol like I have any idea how to put them on

. Being anonymous on here is I hope gonna help me as I havent told a lot of people  about cancer and do my best to avoid places where I might meet someone I know    is this crazy or just me that i dont want people to know?sorry for ranting on

i hope your ok and thank you for your reply. Sorry to hear about hair and lashes. Did you loose all your hair. ? Lashes well you can go to a larger boots store. There's a new c lash out for cancer patients. No clue just a self adhesive. The lady will teach you and out then on. 
are you still having chemo ?  
 

I start my first one this coming Wednesday  so nervous any advice I'll be grateful  I hate wigs as well  got some 

hats  once all over I'll get extensions

Thankyou  take it day by day  I've lost my hair twice now. First time I was bald  I got up middle of night to go bathroom saw myself in a mirror and frightened myself lok did bother me but I'm still here and that's what matters  I guess we are all different   my chemo has landed me in hospital a few times with sepsis but keep an eye on your temperature and ask when your white cell are likely to be low and dont put yourself in places where there is more chance of catching something   keep a journal  its handy to look at and say oh after chemo I felt like this or I was really tired and    and    day 3then you have an idea what to expect and can plan around it. My daughter invited me to a party but as I knew my cell count would be at its lowest around then told her sorry I dont want to take any chances if some has a cold then I'm more at risk  everyone understood   put you and your health first maybe you'll be lucky and not loose hair  but look on the bright side not having to shave  your legs lol  take care of yourself  I'm sure you'll  be fine and chemo nurses are really nice x

aww. Thank you for replying xx. I hate wigs bull just walk around with hats till it grows for extensions. 
thank you for advice. I think week 3 is best time for the cells xx

thanks again. Is your chemo finished xx. Babita 

Hi   was thinking if you have days you feel sick and cant face food I drank complan  maybe will help you .and ask for help if you need it   rest when you feel tired   and dont refuse help from friends and family   if you're having a good day get out for fresh air   but wrap up found I was always cold  cleaning  forget it   will still have dust long after we ain't here lol  I think once you get through wednesday you'll be fine  it's the not knowing that gets to us even when we had it explained  what would happen   try to sleep through it put your feet up get a blanket and snooze  and if there are complimentary treatments offered  take them or ask if there are any  I had foot massageand it's so soothing and it helps you sleep

Aww 

thank you for your help And advise. Taken on board. 
have you got more chemo to go through still ? X

yes dreading my hair coming off have long dark indin 

hair well had it shorter now. It's hArd tough life. Always happens to the best people. Xx

Yes   keep  positive    mines growing back  just now but back to oncologist end February  so hopefully  chemo starts again and hair will go but I'm ok with that now. Have a year old grand daughter  and she pulls my hat off and I say ok you got little bit more hair than me lol other granddaughter will ask to try hats and wigs on as she wants to know how it feels on so we have fun doing that and taking pictures   take it day by day and look after yourself x
