Thanks so much for sharing your journey. I’m approaching my 1 year cancerversy. I’ve related to so many things you’ve said!! It helps hearing from someone that’s walked this road and can help guide those of us coming behind you 💗

You look beautiful! Stage 3b survivor here too!! Keep up the good work 😘

For me, it was subsequent surgery and not the cancer that caused my hair loss. My carcinoma was surgically removed along with all my inguinal lymph nodes (just in case, but had not spread) and it seemed at the time, the only side effects after the surgery were both legs tended to stay quite swollen with lymphoedema. However, a couple of years after, I had to have several knee surgeries which didn't go so well (probably due to lack of lower body lymph nodes) with quite a lot of infection and over a month in hospital. Afterwards, I noticed my quite thick hair started getting thinner. Didn't fall out in clumps, just gradually seemed quite fine and "see-through" on the top. It has been that way ever since, about 10 years and never grew back thicker. But if that's all, I thank goodness it wasn't any worse. God bless you for sharing this with us and praying for you and all the commenters here that your health is stable and your future bright!

Welcome back! Thank you for your inspiring videos. I was diagnosed with HR-/PR-/HER2+ in December... itty bitty little tumor (2 cm). I don't have BRCA but I do have another breast cancer causing gene. I finished 6 rounds of TCHP 12 weeks ago and now just HP for a total of 18 rounds. Luckily the HP doesn't cause hair loss so it's growing back. I had a double mastectomy June 11th (OUTPATIENT!!) and two lymph nodes all of which were cancer free (YAY!). I have another surgery to replace my expanders hopefully in October. And of course... all this amid the CV-19 pandemic.

Thank you for the update sweetie! Your hair is gorgeous like you. My journey has just started, stage 2B triple negative breast cancer here just diagnosed Nov 5, 2020. Starting chemo dec 9, 2020 doing the same you did and doing genetic testing soon but double mastectomy is planned after chemo and I hope and pray they can save skin and my nipples as well for me to have implants. Thank you so much for doing these videos because it helped me not be in the dark to all of this new stuff but I’m learning as I go plus you have helped so much too.

Hi Nikki. Great you posted a new video. Been following your journey. I am 48 and now 1 yr after my last chemo. 7 months ago I had my healthy ovaries and f. tubes removed. Only tiny 3 scars. Almost invisible. But I am still doing my secondary breast reconstruction. Filing my expender. My boob almost normal size, I am so happy. When filling finished, then exchange surgery. Love your reconstruction. Looks like nothing has happened. The best of luck. Xxx

Thank you so much for the update. I was just thinking about you tonight and found your update. Your hair is beautiful, so glad you are doing well. My niece who just turned 30 just had her double mastectomy in May and is doing well. I have watched your videos which has helped me understand her journey. Thankful you are doing well.

Thanks for the update. I’ve watched all your videos.. more than once! I’m 17 weeks post chemo. Hair is growing back slowly! Sorry to hear about your hair loss, its looking very shiny and healthy you’d never know!

Damn you got some shiny hair girl. Mine is 11 months post chemo and it seems shiny but yours is like a shampoo commercial lol

You are awesome and so strong, thank you for sharing your journey with us. I have been following you for a while. Also celebrated my one year cancerversary and just had my Total hysterectomy (preventative surgery) on Thursday, bounced back fairly quickly . But you really scared me with the reconstruction description as I had a lumpectomy and was considering double Mastectomy because I am also BRCA2. You have been unknowingly guiding me through the process and I am grateful for you! Try Watermans Shampoo and Conditioner. It is expensive but helps with regrowth.Best wishes and health! And praying that the lump is benign 🙏🏾💐🤍💜

Nikki! So great to see you back and love this video. Your hair is beautiful! I am now just over a year post-chemo for my TNBC. I rushed too quick to dye it (was a horrible mousy colour) and probably need to lay off the dye to let me hair establish itself again. Thank you for the video, you are looking amazing and best of luck with the scan.

Happy to see you doing well. I’m currently going through my chemo journey now, thank you for the uplifting words. Thank you for the hair tips.

I'm going through telogen effluvium after being hospitalized and a lot of weight and blood loss. I wish my hair looked as good as yours. I've lossed about 70 percent of my hair, and I'm female as well. It's very depressing. I had such beautiful hair that people would tell me in line at the store. Now I have huge bald spots on top. I'm going to have to start wearing it back to cover the bald spots, which will pull on my hair more. I feel how you feel, and I'm sorry to any woman this happens to. It makes you feel ugly.

Hi Nikki, thank you so much for posting your story. I'm so very happy to see you well and recovered. I'm also BRCA 1 + and will be having a bilateral prophylactic mastectomy this fall. If you're feeling up to it, could you share more about your overall surgical and reconstructive experience? Your videos have helped me so much!! Thank you!

Watching your video really inspired me. I found out I have triple negative breast cancer in June. I had a double mastectomy in July and Now going through chemo. Got great tips from you in many of your videos. I hope wiki doing well. Keep posting.

Hey, I love watching you. I've finished chemo , had surgery and had a pcr to treatment. Radiotherapy next. I feel as though I have been dragged along a road with big bumps. Hope you are ok

Happy to see you're still around... was a tad worried that things had gone horribly wrong, glad I was mistaken

I love your videos Nikki thank you for sharing 💕 you've really helped me with my TNBC journey. I had a lumpectomy 3 weeks ago and I'll be starting radiation next month. It's great to see you doing well aside from your hair hiccup. You look great!

Thank you for sharing, you have no idea how important your videos are to us. Stay well lovely

Thank you for sharing, I was diagnosed with TE in jan 2020 because of an concussion, still shedding but not as bad as in the beginning. Your hair looks stunning by the way, thanks for the tips😊

I too was diagnosed with breast cancer August of 2017. I had both invasive lobular carcinoma (primary tumor) and invasive mammary (ductal) carcinoma (microcalcifications were a mix) and I too had a double mastectomy. I was 36. Since you did the one and done surgery, did you too have the allergen implants that were recalled? That’s what I had. Actually having an ultrasound on Tuesday to check for rupture due to some symptoms and a few lumps in my non cancer breast. If you did get the recalled implants, did you get them removed? Thank you for sharing your story ❤️❤️❤️

I love ur videos....it's been long seen u.. please keep posting ur video

Hi lovely....how did your appointment go, for the lump in your neck? hope all is well xx

Hello 😃 just wondering why didn’t cold cap during treatment, my wife cold capped during treatment I helped her on every treatment she had really good results THANK GOD🙏 she going in for surgery for a lumpectomy next week then radiation then Tamoxifen. It’s been tough but I’ve been there every step of the way holding her hand she’s a fighter 💪 can I ask you what is the difference between a lumpectomy and a mastectomy when it comes to preventing it from coming back?
