Long Eyelashes

I had seen the term 'llama lashes' on this forum before and it's true!  Went to see Bonnie Raitt and put on make-up (which I never do) and looked like a mascara commercial.  Add that to the ghostly paleness and maybe I looked a little more like "The Queen of the Damned" instead of Cindy Crawford.  

How long does it last?  Disappear immediately after finishing TX or do I get to enjoy it a little while?

I treated for 96 consecutive weeks the second time; they had a long growing season.

Yup it's a pretty site...lol...but hopefully, you won't get to laugh at yourself as much as I do at myself cuz I got hit with about all the cosmetic crud that treatment can offer.  :)  Actually, if you've gotten to week 23 without much of these things showing up yet, you might end up missing out on them.

On treatment, my eyebrows made Andy Rooney jealous.

Thanks Jamie817!

I actually started using the cold compresses too until I read something on an eye website that said to do the warm/hot.  I've been doing the warm/hot for the past week or so and it has helped.  I'm pretty sure mine is an allergy thing too and, in fact, I'm pretty sure it's an allergy to the treatment meds.  I take Zyrtec and Zantac combo for it now (switched from benadryl) but it doesn't totally help.  I appreciate your tip on this!

Soooo, Llama lashes, hair on my face , eyebrows that stick out  and the hair off my head
along with everything else, I can't wait.  I'm laughing so hard with the visual I'm having about myself. I'm on week 23 of 48
Remember a sense of humor is a beautiful thing.
