Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden announced in June that she had undergone a mastectomy after discovering that she had stage three breast cancer; she is now undergoing chemo
Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden said her second round of chemotherapy treatment has had a “heart-breaking” effect as she begins to lose her hair.
On Sunday, she wrote about her second round of chemotherapy treatment in a series of Instagram messages: “What I’ve found harder this time round and the last few days is the hair shredding. Even though I’m cold capping you hope to keep 50 per cent of your hair and there are also many benefits to the hair growing back quicker too.
She asked her almost 500,000 Instagram followers to suggest a name for her new wig, which is mid-length, brown and wavy. The dancer said: “I know this won’t last forever but during this time and knowing normally these few months are my favourite time of the year and I feel myself wishing these months away just hurts so much.
“Got home very tired and started being sick , by Friday afternoon the sickness stopped and just waves of nausea.
