I'm pretty sure its the chemo killing off the roots of my hair. I remember it hurting during my first chemo. My hair hasn't started falling out yet, but I expect that to happen in the next two or three weeks.

I just got a Neulasta shot. I am supposed to experience bone pain in about 24 hours. I don't remember that during my first round; but I was in the low point of my chemo and just remember complete misery.

I"ll be sending good vibes your way and hope that you are feeling better soon. cmd
