Lynne0716 Just diagnosed a couple of months ago.
High Grade Serous Carcinoma
First time posting a message. Have had one cycle of chemo and 2nd scheduled for this Wednesday...if bloodwork OK. Losing my hair and feeling overwhelmed by that. Going to store today to look at head coverings/wigs. Yikes! Have registered for workshop "Look Good Feel Better" at cancer centre. Any words of advice?

All I can say is having been through it myself is you have the right idea to get out there and communicate with others. Please be an assertive advocate with your medical team asking questions and being informed.0

I hope all went well with your second chemo and you are handling it okay. I just wanted to let you know that Giant tiger sells sports head covers that are really comfortable. They are open ended colourful tubes and you just tuck them under in the back. Lots of bright colours1
