Hi carolyn yeah my hair has grown it is like a short skin head makes my ears look massive but I’ve put earrings in to try and look a bit more feminine lol. It’s hard the first time you venture out without a has isn’t it x x x
Yes its awkward when so short but hopefully you will grow hair quickly with the warmer weather. My hubbys grass is growing at an alarming rate and so your hair should as well!!! ???
Haha carolyn you’re right wish my hair would grow as fast as my grass it would be down my back by now lol I’ve never been interested in the garden but I’m going to start I’ve cut grass this morning took me ages the handle kept coming off the lawn mower it was a right pain so il have to get a new one that’s another shopping trip haha x x x
Jultz a lot of ladies on the chemo threads have been using BIOTIN to speed up hair growth but I looked at some reviews and there was a lot of complaints as they have changed the manufacture and ingredients from what it was.
Maybe other ladies reading can recommend better shampoo for hair growth ( and thinning like mine).
I’ve heard there’s a horse mane shampoo that’s supposed to be really good it was on the American site but I can’t find what it’s called I might put a post on see if anyone answers x x
Ha ha …what with horse mane shampoo and udder cream for wrinkles ( I think it was on breakfast tv ) we would be better to see the vet instead of oncologist in future !!!
Let us all know though about the shampoo !!
Hugs xxxx
hi wish id had my care by a vet .they seem good dont they.xxsharin
Haha yeah never thought of that carolyn il find out the name of it and let you know. Have you heard about the wool quilts they adjust to your temperature? Has anyone tried one x x
It’s called mane and tail shampoo look it up on amazon has great reviews I’m going to try it x x
No haven’t heard about wool quilts but sounds good. I love my feather duvet as it sort of hugs me but in a cool way. I have a very low tog… and then a throw in case it gets cold. Always have the window open a little bit too.
Will be looking forward to hearing about your shampoo results. You will in the grand national next year with all that hair flowing…
I’ve just bought simple shampoo for my thinning hair but saw an advert on tv for regains which is for hair loss which I might try.
My sons dog had a leg op but it wouldn’t heal… vet prescribed manucur honey (spelling wrong) and it cleared up within a few days. Might help ladies with skin Mets or Rad Burns.maybe vets know best!!!
Hu jultz its a lovely feeling to walk out without a hat.and feel the air going through your hair…sharon.x
Hi Ladies,
I hope you have all been enjoying the lovely weather this weekend.
As you all know I started my Zometa infusions just over a week ago.
And I am getting some tingly and numb sensations in my hands and some lightheadedness.
Has anyone else suffered with these issues after bone infusions??
I was feeling really well before I had the infusion, now i feel crappy, which is very frustrating.
Any advice ladies??
Hugs to everyone

Look after yourself though as stress is not good for you …your brother made a choice but you have to keep strong for your health.
Hugs and kisses xxxx
Oh funnyface what terrible news, so sorry for you! But as Carolyn has said you need to take care of yourself.
Life throws some rubbish things at us sometimes but it’s how we deal with it that matters and stress does play a massive part in our wellbeing! Take care sending you lots of cyber hugs ((()))
Hope everyone is okay, it’s another gorgeous day here in Manchester.

Karen.
Zometa seems to have a whole lot of side effects. Now as u all know I’m rubbish with medical stuff but most of us have the injection denosubam so not sure why you have infusion bone strentheners ? Maybe you could ask when u see oncologist .
Hugs xx
Hi Carolyn,
I had the same thought this morning so decided to contact my BCN and contact oncologist to ask if these side effects were normal.
I have now just been told that my Oncologist has left. I am devastated. She was so wonderful and now I have to meet a new one. I hate change!!
My BCN does seem to think that the tingling and numbness is from the zometa but if it gets worse has told me to go straight to A&E due to where my bone mets are on my spine, very close to spinal chord.
