Has anyone done CMF chemotherapy and can anyone tell me what it was like and does anyone know the long and short term possible side effects?

Do you need to do cold capping or do you lose your hair with CMF?

    Do search for this board: Topic: CMF treatment survivors and experiences.

    There will be years of posts that will prove helpful to you.

    I had 8 infusions of CMF and never lost my hair although it did thin.

    I think the only lasting effect of chemo that I really have is Chemo-brain. It is real, for sure.

    PM me anytime if you have questions.

    I had cmf. Gave me chemo brain, threw me into menopause. Wreaked my Immune function, in a way that has never gone completely back to normal, even now 6 years later. Was told afterwards not even useful for Lobular. Completely regret listening to the medical morons.
