cold cap issues

Hi All

Had my first round of AC today. Tried the cold cap but found it to be unbearable.... had it on for 10-15 min first time then had to take off...splitting headache, gagged from strap, and felt queasy from heat blanket (surgical one not a electric blanket).... had a break and then tried again after taking a relaxant....still no luck.....

So I will be losing my hair, my gorgeous hairdresser then cut it off short for me so I won't have so much to deal with...and my 3 yr old says I have doll hair now ??. Hospital great, gave me hats and caps plus a massage! 

Anyway part vent as I am disappointed but also curious to know if anyone else couldn't tolerate it. I kept on past my threshold and went into mini panic attack.......

Hospital great, gave me hats and caps plus a massage!
