Hi all,
Sending much love and strength to everyone in this group
I just wondered if anyone knew when it is considered safe to start epilating after chemo has ended, just conscious of the risk of infection...I am on the immune boosting injections BTW and in a different context, my Oncologist mentioned previously that because of that my immunity should be back to normal after 3/4 days. Leg hair has literally still barely come back but still...
Thank you!
Hi, I am sorry I can't answer your questions but I noticed you've not had any replies yet and it's slipped down the pages as the group is quite busy so my answer will bump you back to the top and hopefully someone with the right experience will be along soon. Best wishes
