I am new to this forum. My daughter, now age 21, is over ten years off treatment for ALL. She was high risk with CNS involvement and had to have radiation along with 2.5 years chemo. Her hair did fall out, however, after every one said it would come back, it never really did. Her hair is very, very thin. She worked with young children over the summer and they kept asking her what was wrong with her hair. She was to a dermatologist shortly after her treatment stopped, but no suggestions were made. She is still in tears at times with her self image. I had not done much research because, frankly, I am just glad she is alive and think she looks beautiful no mater what. We almost lost her with all the chemo and the side effects she endured. She has multiple other medical problems, mainly dealing with fatigue and mood disorder. Had open heart surgery last year as well for a benign tumor.
Has anyone else had this situation and does anyone know if there is a way for her hair to be regrown.
