Chemo on Friday

Hi Scalena, I had FEC for my first 3 chemos, and just did what the oncologist and staff told me to. Take your medication as directed and you'll be less nauseous. I did not vomit at all, but had nausea and dizziness following chemo for about 3 days. This sounds really weird, but I felt less nauseous when I had a little feed of protein, such as a boiled egg or a slice of ham. Also, have a water sipper with you as sipping water helps as well. the other thing that helped was to eat wet foods like jelly, porridge, and cut up melon, as it's easier to swallow and gives you some vitamins from your food. I always take a multivitamin, and that supports feeling better. I hope that your first treatment goes well for you, and that your side effects are manageable for you. Warm wishes, Tracey B ??
