Hi, can I ask how soon after you started your chemo did your hair fall out? I am day 9 after 1st chemo, did use cold cap and know it doesn't always work, but was wondering if I was to lose my hair, when would it start.

Well done for still managing to work, you must be doing amazing x

3 days after 2 chemo fell out and gone within the week ....I was told it comes out quickly but I didn't realise how quick. Had a 3 day meltdown then pulled my big girls pants on and embraced it..I didn't have cold cap but ladies at chemo have there hair has thinned but most of them doing well at keeping it×

How fantastic that you are nearing the end of your chemo and that you can’t feel the lump! It’s amazing how we find the strength to get through this. Watery eyes are the worst, I have just tried false eyelashes for the first time and they seem to stop my eyes watering, so I’m very happy with this unexpected nice side effect.
keep powering through, chemo will soon be done
