Arimidex and hair loss????
 

Hi Everyone
I've been taking Arimidex since August after my oophorectomy and I
have'nt lost any hair as such or noticed any thinning but the past couple
of weeks I've been getting a "Tingling" sensation in my scalp which is
exactly what i got when losing my hair with chemo.
I know it can be an un common side effect and I'm probably just panicking
but wondering if anyone else has had this??
I finished chemo last Feb but my hair has been very slow in growing which
I attribute to Herceptin but as I'm due my last one in a couple of weeks I'm
hoping to add to my crowning glory rather than have it thinning with another
drug!
Thanks in advance for any replies:)

oh no!!! let's hope the tingling is just for fun!!! I, too, have been taking Arimidex for a little over a year..just finished Herceptin at the beginning of Oct. Getting used to having hair!!! Keep us posted!

I have been on arimidex and herceptain for a year ( no chemo) and no noticabke hair loss. Eyelashes are thinner but that is fixed with mascara.
