Fuzz
Hello everyone. I have a minor thing I wanted to ask about. I am fortunate that my hair is growing back at a nice rate. (Some people even think it is this terribly short on purpose!) BUT, I have noticed that there seems to be light fuzz on my FACE as well! My husband just commented on it out in the sun. He said something about the drugs causing it. But I am only on Herceptin. The prior drugs caused me to LOOSE hair. Could this just be normal facial fuzz that is returning? Or am I going to look like the Abominable Snowman soon? Just one more little thing to worry about......
