Hair Loss
Did you lose your hair during treatment?
Cindy, I lost all my hair with Chemo and then lost all my hair with the SCT but it does come back and there are some beautiful head scarfs or hats and wigs. I did try a wig but for me it was just too hot and uncomfortable so I liked the light scarfs or hats. Many just embrace the bald look which is beautiful too. You can do things with your makeup and make your beautiful eyes stand out. I worried about it too but it really wasn’t so bad. I even had pictures done beforehand to remember my hair before chemo. It was silly and i found out when my hair did come back in it was thicker and brown where my hair was blond and straight before. You may want to shave your hair off before instead of watching it come out in clumps. You take control! It will be okay! Love, Marcia 🌸
I was treated with Revlimid, Velcade and dexamethasone 💖 and, like Donna said, I did not lose my hair. I opted to not have the SCT. I liked Marcia's message to you regarding the scarves and turbans and cute hats. you may find a wig you like too. I wish you the very best! Keep us posted please. (there is a "skull cap" to go under the wig that may make it more comfortable)
I lost all my hair with high dose Cytoxan then again with stem cell transplant. But you will not lose your hair with the pre and post transplant drugs like Revlimid, Velcade and dexamethasone 💖
Not during induction (prior to SCT) however I did lose all my hair after SCT - July 2019.. Started growing back slowly by November 2019.
I lost hair from mm,my chemotherapy stopped my hair loss,they were two treatments ,one caused hair loss and Velcade didn't,my onoglist chose Velcade because it would work without hair loss
Do All MM Drugs Cause Hair To Fall Out?

Regarding Chemo And Hair Loss: Would U Recommend Cutting My Hair Really Short Before Chemo Or Letting It Fall Out
