Hi has anyone been told they can't have cold cap therapy with nab paclitaxel? I have had to change from paclitaxel due to allergic reaction & was told it may not work with nab paclitaxel. I said but its the same drug & nurse said well it hasn't been tested with nab paclitaxel. I said I want to continue anyway. I am seeing oncologist next week before my treatment starts & wondering if I inisist that I want to try it anyway!
Thanks
