To the ladies who have taken taxol- did you lose your eyebrows and eyelashes?
I had some eyebrows on my last treatment. Once I was finished, they fell completely out.
I have lost half my eye brows and almost all my lashes now
Taxotere and it's relatives is going to be the source of some amusement: just think about the various ways we've lost hair and nails!
I had one dose of TAC and lost all my hair, all! nose hair, most of my eyelashes, and some of the eyebrows. it did grow back tho..except for the hair under my affected arm. No problem there!
Eyebrows do make a BIG + difference in your appearance. Mine are sparse and rather lighter than my regular hair color. I also wear glasses. I never bothered until I read one of these "you feel terrible and have to be presentable" articles in a supermarket magazine. I tried the brow suggestion along with a tiny dab of white shadow at the inner end of each eye. WOW. And if you want to, you can try different brow styles. I'm possibly seeing my plastic surgeon tomorrow, think I'll shock his socks off.
