@Glen19 Lots of hugs to you, I'm so sorry you are going through this. I don't know if this may help but couldn't harm ... my chemo nurse asked me if I had a migraine after chemo - answer was yes. He told me at a certain stage of chemo he would put a heat pack on the back of my neck and fetch me a cup of sweet tea. I am not certain what the stage was other than when they went to press the purple buttons lol ... no Dr am I! However, this nurse had been through leukemia and had chemo every day for 3 months. He said the heat pack (looks a bit like a shower cap) counteracts the chemo 'brain freeze' that occurs with the infusion. I didn't have a problem after that but was on FEC at the time. Now on Docetaxil sp? they say I don't need it. My best hugs xxx
