Fuller Hair - Monday, March 29, 2010

More progress to report. My sister remarked that my hair now resembles a normal hairstyle rather than regrowth from chemo, although it still has the "chemo kink." Someone at work the other day also said that my hair looked "fuller." I received it as a compliment and was grateful for the feedback. Another item of note is that my fingernails have grown back in and are almost completely normal looking. Due to the Taxotere, they had developed deep ridges. For about six months they were very weak making it difficult to use them for anything due to chronic breakage. At this point, the ridges are barely visible at the tips of some of my fingers and are stronger. The oncologist had said that it was possible they would stay ridged so I am very glad to see they have not.
