I think the very back of the neck is what surprised me. I don't think I realized that would be in the field? And I think it was David mentioned the radiation "exit" path? I don't fully understand that.
I just want to be prepared for him when he notices. He has always been very sensitive about hair loss and receding hair line, etc. He has gone to Atlanta to have the hair transplant surgery done - that's how worried about he is. I've told him from day 1 of our marriage that I think he's handsome and that if he goes bald it'll be sexy :-), but based on his history I would assume when he notices this current side effect he will be a little upset.
