Has anyone used a cold cap for chemotherapy?

Posted by kathy15 @kathy15, Jun 24 10:03pm

I was diagnosed in April with breast cancer, HER2 positive with negative lymph nodes, stage 1, grade 2, had a double mastectomy now 5 weeks post op. Chemo starts this week for 4 rounds every 3 weeks. So wondering if the cold cap works so I won’t ( hopefully) lose my hair. Any thoughts or experiences on this? Thanks
