Day 53 | Some Tummy Relief and ....Hair Falling Out

Tummy Relief

The Zofran seems to be working a little bit, or maybe it's the Imodium, or maybe both. Yesterday was a good day, I felt really normal (which we're prizing as the best thing right now). This morning was a little rougher, but I'm hoping it's just a blip. 

I'm 8 days away from the next treatment. It's supposed to be easiest from here till then. Here's hoping that's true. I'd appreciate being able to eat some Mexican. Okay, maybe not Mexican. Maybe something other than white bread and plain pasta. ...Maybe just some fruit or a salad would be good. Mmmmm....salad. 


...Some Hair Falling Out

Welp, I'd prepped for my head hair to fall out. They said it was most typical 10-14 days after treatment. I even cut that cute little pixie, getting ready for it. I knew that my eye lashes and eye brows would fall out. I also knew body hair was a possibility. 

I just didn't expect it like this. The body hair is going first. I rub my fingers on my arms and all the little arm hair falls out. It's not like I'm hairy or anything, but I have hair on my arms and legs...or, had(?) hair there. 

It's a strange sensation how the hair falls out. It doesn't hurt, but you can pull out a lot of hairs at once....like pulling feathers from a pillow....without any pain. 

Anyway, head hair is holding strong. Hopefully it will last a few more days.

    Thinking of you every day. You are strong, lady. The strongest. Hair or not. XX
