Oh I think this is such a cute thread and a big testament that we are the source for our issues, regardless of the matter.


I did not get any more hair in my underams under my left breast, the deseaced breast. Felt funny at first but now, alleluia- who needs to shave.

The underam under the prophe mast also is not getting any hair. I wonder if has to do with removal of glands.

Both are smooth as baby skin

I noticed that I also don't sweat as much and it doesn't smell either. I'm using a very mild deodorant called Alvera -aloe and Almonds. Sold at the health food stores and whole foods market. Very natural and smells nice. Target also sells a natural deodorant called Herbal Clear Naturally, a natural dedorant that smells bery fresh and works. I tried the Naturally Fresh Dedorant Crystal Roll on- (they support breast cancer research) but it did not work as well

Some positive things that come out of our mess. Accentuate the positive

Hair on legs is sparse but I don't know is due to chemo, herceptin or age (i'm 51). Don't have to shave as often. I do shave with a regular raxor, not shower electric razor.

XOXO
