What hair I didn't lose while on Adrimyacin, I lost when on taxol, body hair, hair on head, eyelashes ( started to come back but fell out again) even eyebrows. I am 6 months out now from chemo treatments and everything has grown back in. Even the eyelashes, though not as long as they used to be. Hair is thicker and curly ( I don't do curly, but hey it's hair) It was great not having to shave legs and armpits, not spending money on haircuts or fixing it before going to work. My counts got very low on the taxol, particularly my hgb. They gave me injections of anrasep (sp) but even that didn't help. They also wanted me to get a transfusion a couple of times but I am very stubborn and said as long as I am standing and continuing to work, no thank you. It has taken 6 months for wbc and Hgb to return to normal. Not everyone loses all their hair during treatment, doesn't mean it's not working. Keep believing the chemo is doing its job.
