Tykerb and Xeloda hair thinning

[Ceesun]

Is anyone getting finer and thiner hair with some breakage? Ceesun

Yes... mine was finer and thinner. Xeloda, being a chemo, has a dermatologic effect, and Tykerb also comes with a dermatologic effect as well (it's in the list of SEs) - so that combination comes with a bit thinner and finer hair. Oh well. Better than bald, I say!

Yep, watch it fall to the floor daily as I brush my hair. The texture is also changing to dry and no curl. Trying to decide what to do, very short cut???
My drugs are Tykerb/Xeloda, started worse when Xeloda was introduced. (also Aromisin)
