March 2026 chemo starters

This is all so helpful - thanks everyone.

I have had EC#2 6 days ago and the head hair shedding is happening now (despite cold capping and following the guidance). I am accelerated (1 x fortnight rather than 3 weekly). I think this element is going to be hard for me.

Otherwise symptoms are mainly fatigue - more this cycle than last. Still managing to eat a lot.

Gross tip I remember from post childbirth for constipation (sorry if TMI) is pop each foot on a stood up full loo roll whilst sat on the loo (or another box / step) to bring your knees higher up relative to the loo seat….

@herts82 I think your chemo plan is identical to mine. How did you find cycle 3 and 4 of EC relative to the earlier ones?

@katie91 your wig looks great!

Love to all x
