I have just completed my treatment and awaiting surgery. My hair fell out after second treatment and I have just used hats. Benefit of being bald is how quick you can shower. No hair to dry means i am ready so quickly. Nose hair was a surprise as my nose has run constantly and sometimes suddenly if I leaned forward, tissues were always to hand. Eyebrows and eyelashes have only recently fallen out completely, do not mind but eyes can get gritty and water a lot. Has not been to bad so far and it is great not having to shave / wax .

I'm at a similar stage to you just now, due 3rd chemo cycle this Tuesday. I like to focus on humour with these effects. I never have a bad hair day 😜. Some of my finger nails are starting to get brown lines on them, did you get this too? This is with eperubecin.
