Morning Michelle I hope you have seen a doc about your shingles. I would be checking with your oncology team about your treatment because Im thinking they might delay you, there is also the issue of other patients in the oncology room contracting shingles.
My hair started to fall out my second treatment so I had it all cut off and wore a wig or scarves. The rest of my body hair just kept falling out. My friends got me some Merkins (these are wigs for your pubic area.) When they got me these I was a bit low and they made me laugh, I still have them as a reminder of the people who supported me through my trip.
Take care xx
