@Lizzie75.
I had a fantastic run with the cold cap. The discomfort for me only lasted a couple of minutes and I never took any sedatives. The first time is the worst as the cold comes on very fast and gives you a bit of a shock. The next time you know what to expect so it's not as bad.
It's another one of the things along the way that everyone responds to differently. The fit is super important and I think it's best to be really well educated on it yourself before you start. Some nurses are really good with it, others not so much. If you want any tips just send me a p,m..
This photo is heading to my last day of chemo.
