Night after chemo
Hi everyone
Thank u so much for all your kind responses and invaluable advice.
I think it is really the fear of the unknown regarding the chemo.
I had a lovely nurse who explained everything to me...

The nausea was only really bad for a day or so (probably 3 days the first time). Then I found eating small amounts fairly often helped.
I always felt good with no nausea at all after about a week, so had 2 good weeks each cycle.
Am now on Docetaxel and do not feel any nausea at all, but have had lots of aches and pain and an infection.
Hope you feel better soon. Take the medication, drink a lot and suck on ice, eat ice cream or ice blocks, whatever you can manage. If you think of something you feel like then eat it. On about day 3 I had a craving for a bacon sandwich!
Hope this helps, you will feel better soon!
