Hi Ladies, it's good to hear all your updates, and pleased that most of us are finally at the end of our hospital tretament. It's been a long 9 months. I finish my rads on Tuesday So far no side effects, except for the usual redding of the skin, but other than that all Ok. I have had a nagging pain in my shoulder joint on the side I had my mx and never had pain there before and 3 weeks in it is still there and now quite painful. Having to my your arms in the strurips everyday hasn't help so I am hoping that the pain will settle down, of course your mind goes in to over drive wondering if the pain is something else going on! Like Auntieanna, I am surprised how quickly my hair is coming back through, although I think the dark grey and white hair is a very popular colour Hopefully in about 3 months I will be able to colour it again. I was talking to a lady at one of my apts and surprised how much hair growth she had and she said that she had been using http://www.viviscal.co.uk/viviscal-gorgeous-growth-densifying-elixir so I bought some at Holland & Barrett and also bought the shampoo as it has get one buy one and get one half price I am using twice a day to speed up the process She also had quite long eyelashes and she said that she had also been putting it on her eyelashes. I wish you all the very best going forward. My friend who has been so supportive throughout my chemo and my rad tretament has treated me to see "Beautful'" The Carole King story http://www.lovetheatre.com/tickets/3990/Beautiful-The-Carole-King-Musical?nst=0&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=LOVEtheatre-UK-SG-BMM-Eng-DT-SE-Beautiful%20The%20Carole%20King%20Musical-Tier%201&utm_term=%2Bmusical%20%2Bbeautiful&utm_content=Beautiful%20The%20Carole%20King%20Musical-Musical in April and then I am going away with a friend over the Easter break to Majorica to hopefully put some colour back in my checks" Wishing one and all a happy rest of the year and hope all goes well with you. If anyone still wishes to meet up around September time, I happy to organise this, so just let me know. Take Care Lisa x
