Well guys, I've finally found my "lost hair soul mates" I'm a woman and I had the 35 radiation treatments to the head. Like many I've lost the sense of smell, & taste .I have virtually no saliva. It will never get any better. I still have problems with eating. My teeth have suffered. My nose runs constantly, I carry select a size paper towels all the time. If you should wash them they stay together, not like a kleenex. I'm a woman and of course I know about things being left in pockets like a kleenex. Anyway my radiation was of course to my head. Actually my cancer was at my brainstem. So the radiation was at the back of my head. Now my hair is not only fine. But it is thinning and my neckline is a good inch from where it should be. Like you if I lift it up it looks like I shaved it. You ought to see it in a pony tail. What a site. Like I said at the begining of this book. I'm so tickled to now have "lost hair soul mates". I hope this put a little smile on your faces.
