Chemotherapy positive stories please 💖 - #54 by hcc5 After 8.5 months that’s the chemo treatment done and just the hysterectomy to get through at the end of the month . I wont lie getting my PICC line out was painful as the wee hook things and clip had got stuck ….BUT being able to wash my whole body with no dry sleave was wonderful this morning ….the dry skin coming off my arm was shocking ….like an anaconda had shed it’s skin arrrr Three thick layers of Zerobase disappeared like snow in July LOL . My hair is coming back as are my eye lashes and eye brows ….both are really dark brown but my hair has come back snow white LOL and spiky with a mind of it’s own ….. wishing you all good health and an easy path xx
