Thanks so much @shs14 had the first session of AC (4 x each fortnight) yesterday with the cold cap. The kind nurses offered Panadol & sedation which I gobbled up, as the port side was still bruised from surgery Friday (plus was also still bruised from accidentally smacking it with my hairbrush. I’d forgotten that I had a new stylish short haircut which now only needs a light finger comb ....for the next few weeks...anyway). I have a life long habit of yanking my brush vigorously through my long, curly hair and when my hairbrush no longer met with resistance and scraped down my new bruise...Tears! I had 3 days to enjoy my stylish Audrey Hepburn look, and now look like Emmet from the LEGO movie).
I digress - I have 12 x weekly Paclitaxel in round 2 & I thought this was the particular potion that caused the neuropathy. I have had a look around but can’t find the links that you mentioned. I’m also going to look for some papers too (I have a Science background).
I will have gloves & socks hopefully arriving by round 2 of the AC.
Thanks again for your personal reply. Sending “Warrior-woman-kick-butt” thoughts to you all.
