I have thought that my hair has seemed thinner lately, but I never thought that it could be related to the Zometa which I started about 8 months ago. I used to have very thick curly hair, now it is thin and no curl. Like you said, I am thankful for any hair, and getting used to the new look!

It is not thin enough, though, to bring out the wig. The eyebrows are also a lot thinner than before cancer.
