Hello all, I hope everyone is having a decent weekend. Tomorrow is round 2 for me on AC chemo. I felt like a ticking time bomb after arriving home from my first round and felt like I was just waiting for the side effects to impact. I was relatively lucky and the only side effects were the all over body pain from the neulasta injection which only lasted 2 days and some tiredness. I have continued to walk each day and have been working from home with a stint at the office on Thursday. I did the cold cap and as yet haven't noticed any difference in hair loss so will do the cold cap again tomorrow. I saw my oncologist on Friday and thought I would just raise the question that it seemed odd that I was only having 10 doses of the Paclitaxel when I had noted that for most people it was 12. Arghhhhhh! He said I'm terribly sorry if I said that I was mistaken it is 12. Means I'll finish all treatment by mid August instead of July.
I have a question re the cold cap for @kezmusc how often did you wash your hair whilst using the cold cap? How many treatments did you have to use the cold cap for?
Big hugs to everyone as I hear off to find my big girl pants again❤️
