Hi @riss81, I would recommend letting your health care team know as soon as you can as they generally will be able to help you. I found that I was pretty knocked around for the first 3 days and then I came good. I was able to establish my routine - the bad days where I lay on the couch and then the good days where I would go out etc. Please make sure you keep taking the nausea medication as you do not want it to start because once it starts, it is hard to get control over it. My nurses told me not to give it any opportunity to get a grip and to take the medication if I had even the slightest feeling of nausea. Try to keep up your fluids - ginger ale, water with a squeeze of lemon. Suck on some fruit tingles - anything that you feel like eating, have it. Take care of yourself.
