Hey Jen, I also have super long hair and I'm trying to enjoy it while I can. What's AC? And I also heard so

AC is the Ardriamycin Cytoxin part of Chemo. These drugs make you lose your hair as one of the numerous side effects. They told me it would fall out between two and three weeks after Chemo.
Thanks Karen!
Never heard of a cold cap. It sucks losing your hair, but there may be things about being bald you don't mind! Like laying on a cool pillow or the way the shower feels on your head.

Are you getting AC? They told me everyone loses hair with that treatment. It could take three weeks though. I hope you are right about it not falling out for you.
