Wig caps

Hello everyone. I'm due to start chemo on the 4th for breast cancer.

Can anyone advise me on which wig cap to buy? I've been told various things about the need for them to keep your head cool, to relieve itching etc 

No idea where to start. Thanks in advance.

  • Rooting for you. This forum is great. It's like having a personal advisor.

    I'm going to look on the net for a relevant book tonight. I'm one of those people who has a real need to know everything I can.

    I' ll let you know how it all goes and hope you'll feel much better once you've got your plan.  

    Hugs

  • Hi i am so upset my apt tmrw has been cancelled as MRI scan results not back !!! the only way i got through Christmas was the thought my treatment would be sorted tmrw ....fereling devastated is an understatement so another 7 sleepless nights till the 6th January xx 

  • I am so so sorry to hear this. The waiting is definitely the worse thing for me too. 

    I waited almost 3 weeks for results. The hospital knew, my own doctor knew but I , the patient didn't. I was furious.

    However, for me, as I told them when I did get the results, it was all about the control. Once I had it back I was ok. 

    This may be what's the problem with you too. Right now you have no control. You cant plan because you don't know what your facing, you can't rest because you can't tick the MRI box, you can't process your thoughts and response as you dont have all the facts 

    It's so so hard. I get it. I wish I could suggest something to get it done asap. But I can't do my advice to you is do as my consultant told me to do over Xmas, before my chemo starts. He said " go and have fun "

    As hard as it is. It will release happy hormones and help ease the wait. Share time with friends, have a spa whatevers your happy place. Fingers xd for a speedy resolution. Keep in touch x
