I’m 17 days post first infusion. My scalp started being very tender about day 13. Hair started falling in earnest on day 14. I’m not bald yet, but it’s coming out in clumps. I’ve read many posts about hair loss, but I’m wondering more specifically about the scalp pain. Does the pain stop when the hair is all gone? If not, any tips? I’m just using ice packs to help right now.

my scalp pain went away when the hair loss ended. Sleeping with a soft sleep cap did help at night, as well as using a silky pillowcase.
