Oh, I am glad this has come back up again. I am losing my eyelashes for the THIRD time. I lost them in March right after I completed chemo. Then I lost them in August, two months after herceptin and I am losing them again. I have found that false eyelashes are really easy to apply, but this third time is really bothering me. I always worry will they come back as thick and long as they were?? I never had great hair, but I had great eyelashes and I REALLY do not want to lose them again.

I have also ALWAYS had great nails. Easy to grow and easy to keep long. Now, I have to trim them at the quick because they just split when they grow any longer.
