Thank you for sharing. I’ve just finished 12 weeks of Paclitaxel with Herceptin 3 weekly. I cold capped and kept 98% of my hair, just two small patches above my ears where my glasses go. ( I put my glasses under the cap in error, none of the nurses told me not to), they should be worn on the straps on top! If you have any questions, I’m here to help if I can.
I wasn’t able to work, have been signed off since diagnosis in May. I work in a school, so not the best place to keep away from illnesses! They had scarlet fever outbreak just before Christmas. Also teaching is not any good with chemo brain and crying for no reason! My brain is not functioning the same. Not sure I’ll ever return to teaching, I was always catching bugs with asthma and heart condition before the bloody cancer! Maybe time for career change.Breast Care nurse said lots of ladies decide the job they were doing isn’t right anymore and do something they really enjoy rather than have too!
