Fatigue?
Hi guys, just checking in to say hello!
I was just wondering how long the fatigue after treatment lasts? I'm about 90+ days out, I think, and for about the last month I've just been totally dead tired. I work a lot of hours, but I'm more tired and worn out now than when I was taking treatments!
Is this normal?
Oh yeah, I almost forgot.
When does your hair come back???? It started to comeback, but now it seems to be at a stand still and is only about an 1/8 inch long and very thin! I used to have very thick hair, and I hate to admit it, but I've always been stuck in the 80's with a mullet!
(Don't laugh!)
And I'm grey! I was always dark brown but right before it fell out it turned white and POOF it was gone.
Hmmmm, didn't Buck Owens and that Roy Clark dude have a song like that back in the Hee-Haw days?
"Something something something, and POOF you were gone...?"
