Hair loss

Hey did you guys loose all or some of your hair on Taxol? When I originally took it it was in combo w/ Carboplatin so I did get slick, but after 4 months and they stopped the carbo my hair started to grow back. My hair is long again now and they said I "may" loose it or it will thin out alot. I can deal with that you just hate to have to go through that again.

Thank you for all the great support.
