Hi All,

I started whole brain radiation (ugh!) on Tuesday. The dr. says my hair will not come back. But the technicians say they've seen hair come back. Now in the scheme of things, hair is just hair, but saving my life is priceless. But it never hurts to ask!

Does anyone have any thoughts on side effects? I have six more treatments to go.

I appreciate any thoughts or experiences!
