Hi Jean,

I, like you, (and others) also lost my eyelashes and eyebrows about 1 month AFTER chemo was finished. That totally blew me away. I did notice that they were quite thin the month I was finishing chemo but figured I'd made it that far and I was safe. NOT! I will be finished with chemo one year this Nov. 30, 2006 and can say FINALLY I am pretty much back to normal. It truly does take awhile.
