Hi Jul ie, I am in the same situation as you are. Here in WA we get a $160.00 voucher from the hospital towards the cost of buying a wig. I asked the nurse for the voucher when I had just finished my first round of Chemo, and then you give it to the provider of the wig you purchase. It may not be the same in Qld . I am in private health cover , and they will give me back 85% of the remaining cost of the wig. I too am thinking of getting my hair all cut off end of next week, as I cant face the thought of it dropping out on it's own. All the best with your treatment . Chas
