Answer 2

Uh, if you ask a question, we'll provide an answer. What is your question? Please edit your question and let us know!!!

There are several types of breast cancer. And, each type will vary in its severity. Therefore, it won't surprise you to learn that each type and each severity will have it's own witch's brew of chemicals to kill it. In addition to different formulas, there are differing doses and number of treatments.

Sooo... generally speaking (did I mention that you need to post a good question) -- lots of different types of breast cancer, lots of different stages of breast cancer, lots of different chemicals used in "chemo" and lots of different treatment schedules.

It's almost like the terms "chemo" and "cancer" are useless.....

Last thing- each person responds differently. In general, though, you can expect complete hair loss, so get used to that idea NOW.
