Sharon,
I was 80% recovered before the cytoxin. The cytoxin was to prevent
recurrence. The recovery was after IV steroids about a year earlier. I
also asked the doctor why a cancer treatment and he said they "all" work
the same way, to suppress the immune system.
Sorry. I'm luckier than a lot of people and there are still plenty of times
I would go back to being bald to get some relief from that electric
shock-like tingling.
