ok This may be my weirdest question....I have only 5 weeks to go...I have had my ups and downs like most of us..and yes I cannot wait to be done....my hair is coming out now more then ever. The oddest thing happened.last week at My Dr. appt the nurse said to me she said if you dont mind me saying so you have the most amazing eyelashes Ive ever seen..Im jelious.....I felt good and said thank you...Later at home I remembered that we all feel good lately getting compliments becasue we dont feel good. I look in the mirror to see what she was seeing and GUESS WHAT..my eyelashes ARE longer...they are very long. It freaked me out...Maybe they are gonna fall out or something..When I put on mascara I knew for sure they were different. My husband and daughter both said oh my gosh.......most woman would love this I think they look great....YET what is this is it the treatment..has anyone had this odd thing happen. I feel like your all gonna laugh and say YEAH RIGHT.. Im serious.......they are longer.

" Dilew, I know you're serious, but you make me smile (I'm not laughing at you but I'm smiling cuz you are so real).

As a matter of fact, longer eyelashes IS a side effect of interferon

" Wow interesting article KaryMelly. How come our hair is falling out, but our lashes are growing longer...same with me...although my eyebrows are not very thick to begin with, but now the hairs are growing all over the place....to weird. Does anyone know if you get the longer eyelashes, do they stay that way after tx? Interesting to know. "
