MY CHALLENGES AFTER CHEMOTHERAPY!

In pictures it doesn't show how thin my hair has gotten since my chemo treatments have ended a couple
of months ago. I'm grateful I didn't lose all my hair so I'm not complaining. I guess I was shocked that
it started to fall out more after I was finished with my treatments.
My hairs is very fine with no body to it now. I'm told that this will all take care of
itself with time.

I have a great hair dresser that understands my frustrations and I always love her hair cuts every 6 weeks.

Another challenge is my neuropathy in my hands and feet. They are numb and tingle all the time. They even hurt when I touch my fingertips. It feels a little like sitting on the toilet too long and your legs fall asleep (except it's my hands and it won't go away. I just thought I would share some of my challenges with you.

I do have my energy and appetite back! This is a great blessing. Most of the other side affects are gone too. I am still a little unsteady on my feet but this is connected to the neuropathy. So much for my aches, pains and frustrations.
