Permanent Chemotherapy induced Hair loss ~ What you're not being told
Permanent Chemotherapy induced Hair loss ~ What you're not being told
Shirley Ledlie was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in 2005. She had a lumpectomy and node biopsy, and was told it had spread but the node was encapsulated.
She had radiotherapy and chemotherapy with Taxoter. After her treatment, she noticed that her hair was not growing back. Her oncologist contacted the drug company, and they were aware that the treatment could cause permanent hair loss.
It was then that she found out about PCIA. She has not had no hair for 20 years, and has a daily reminder of her cancer and her treatment.
We discuss her story, and how permanent hair loss from Taxoter could be a lot more common than reported, and could be as high as 20-30%.
