After I had finished the Fec t chemo and radiotherapy, I had thr frightening experience of loose teeth and nails becoming partially detached from the nail bed! I was terrified that I may lose my teeth and that my nails would fall off. There was no reassurance for me anywhere, so, I just want to tell anyone else out there going through the same worry, my teeth eventually settled again and my nails did not fall off.
