A new med and hair loss

Nick continued to have stomach pains off and on after the last chemo, especially after eating some ribs (big surprise!), so he now is also on Reglan to try to control that. And the hair loss has begun! For about the past week, his hair has been thinning. Someone who didn't know him wouldn't think that it looked thin, but I can tell and so can he. When I take a pinch of hair and pull, I end up with a hair or two and he can't feel it come out at all. Luckily his hair is very short, so unless he starts getting patchy spots, he won't have to worry about it. The third chemo is on Friday, Anna's 4th birthday. He also has an appointment with the oncologist and with a nutritionist that day.
