Thanks guys. I am doing FOLFIRI not FOLFOX, but when on FOLFOX my hair thinned. FOLFIRI makes you actually lose a lot of hair, possibly all. Yes I am responding to the treatment, but it makes me very sad that I am going through this again, even though I know people have been through and got cured. So reading some of the posts on here have helped a lot. One of the nice things is I am doing more juicing, I had celery juice with a granny smith apple this morning and eating some sprouts raw. More greens.
