Hi it is a huge shock to be told you will need chemo, it is not stupid to feel this way. When I had chemo I started to lose my hair after first round it was falling out in clumps and this was hard to take so I cut it all off and started to wear a wig and scarves.

Ask if you can have the cold cap that saves your hair not sure where available ask your oncologist.
