Hello and newly diagnosed

@sfr09 Hey!!! welcome!!! and BIG BREATH!!! WHOA!!! Ok so sounds like you have a large tumor and thats why they want to do chemo first to shrink. I did FEC x 4 also called the Red Devil, there are a couple like this. Its a hard hitting chemo but doable. Lots of ladies have tried cold cap, my Oncologist said if I did Taxol yep no worries but with FEC said NO as it won't work. To be honest, Im so glad I didnt bother as I was quite ill on FEC and adding the cold capping I couldnt have done it. I was amazed how I transitioned to my bald from long blonde hair!! and its grown back now 14months post chemo no probs..all was a blink when I look back. Very personal choice, you can try but I had friends that their hair thinned alot and they wished they hadnt bothered as they wanted to maintain it all, so had to wear head gear anyway. Hugs Melinda xo
