    Hi Melanie, First thank you for your videos my wife’s been diagnosed with er- pr- her2+ BC she’s 41. I’ve watched all your videos trying to help me understand how I can best support what’s she’s going through. Great to hear your still clear after treatment. 😀

      Thank you for your message. I am so glad to get feedback. All my best wishes for a full recovery and you are going to make such a difference to her experience by informing yourself so well.

    I had very full, dark eyebrows. They thinned, lightened, and developed a couple of empty spots. I feel I have done pretty well defining them overall. I mostly use the brow products that resemble mascara wands. I do think I may have to try a pencil for one empty spot that doesn't take up the other brow products too well. I had been using Latisse for eyelash growth for quite some time before diagnosis, and had the best eyelashes of my life! I may go back and try that again. They are not even now! One side seems shorter and more sparse than the other. I am so hoping for prompt growth of my hair, as that has really been a blow to my self esteem! Thanks for addressing this issue.

      Thanks for your response. It sounds like you’re doing all that you can. It takes time for regrowth and it’s hard to be patient but hang in there. I go through periods of more thinning hair, then it improves. I feel that in my case zinc and biotin help. All the best x

    Glad everything worked out. Did you have any side effects from the herceptin? I've heard taste changes can happen.

      @mycancerrecoverymelaniejam8145 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn’t experience any side effects from the Herceptin. I didn’t like the injections but I was very grateful to have them. I’m still fine (nearly 7 years). Wishing you the best possible result

      Sorry I have not responded before, I didn’t see your post and just came across it. You have had a hard time and I hope your treatment makes a real difference and you can make the best of losing hair from your body with clever application of makeup and wigs/scarves. Sending the best of wishes

    I enjoyed the video so much! I have been trying to research for a educational video similar to yours that really explains the topics in this TH-cam vid!Your video is similar to the channel of Doctor Ethan. Doctor's tips are really informative and I actually learned a lot for school. He is an insightful health enthusiast in Nottingham and he talks about vaccines and health. I suggest you check out his page out and give Dr Ethan a subscribe over here! 👉 #DrEthanCare
