After my treatment (35 x radio; 2 x chemo) my beard largely stopped growing. It was largely grey anyway so you could hardly see even a week's growth. In the last few weeks (5 months on from treatment) the growth above my upper lip has come back strongly and it's black. i now have an almost permanent Hitler moustache - which is faintly amusing and quite appalling at the same time!
The positive thing I take from it is that it shows how the body does regenerate. Just wish it would hurry up with my taste buds and my saliva glands.
