Still Minus Hair!

Still Minus Hair!

Hello,   It's me again!  It has been nearly 9 months since I completed my 8 chemo treatments,  and my hair is still VERY short and VERY thin.  Barely any on the back.   I wear mt wig when I go out.  But it is HOT!

Is there still a chance that I will grow more hair after this long?  My hair had always been thick and fast growing before cancer.  If any of the readers of this Forum have this experience,  will they please let me know by posting a comment to this.   THANKS!

Dear seven7:  I know that there can be great variability in the way hair grows back.  To confirm, you did not have any radiation to your brain correct?  Radiation to your head can cause hair loss to be more permanent.  Readers?  Any experiences?

No I did not have radiation to my head.  The 33 radiations were on my chest where I lost the breast,and under my arm for nodes.    Seven
