My hair loss was just thinning a bit on top. Probably 5-10%. The regrowth was quite quick, about the 5th round of chemo. I took a diazepam before all treatments but was more for anxiety related to the chemo and cannula. In hindsight I think this also relaxed me more all over. As I also had the frozen gloves for first hour of treatment, this caused more discomfort than the cap and was given panadol which helped a bit, but I think the diazepam really did it. Unfortunately, effects only lasted for up to two hours and I was in the chair for about 5-6 hours. Also this meant I had to have a driver to take me the 70 minute drive to hospital as there would have been residual effects from diazepam. Hope that makes sense.
