@mcharlesfrancis my husband has completed his 2nd treatment, (3rd is this week) he also is losing more hair now. He had his barber cut it very short and leave a little on top but we are seeing more and more thinning and a pillow full of lost hair. He said he is also losing body hair. Eyebrows and mustache are still visible. His mustache is still hanging on but I believe it will be gone before long. Married 47 years and he only shaved his mustache once, so that will defintely be an adjustment for him.

@cbeard1 I can relate... my husband had a beard for our 46 + years. That was gone. And he also commented that his nose dripped all the time because there was no longer any nose hair to catch the drips. Some of the mets were in his lungs, so maybe that caused more mucus? His beard did start regrowing when he got off treatments, but Dan lost his battle before it became full again.
