Invasive lobular gr 2.. best treatments?.

I was saying something similar today, @Lemonade. Everything seems to be about the cancer - I'm sick of it and I can only think that those around me are too!
I suffer from nausea with some of the drugs that go with hospitals and yes, I suffered after my 1st (and only, so far) chemo for about 8 days. Also with reflux (which I never get). Unfortunately, it seems they only send you home with the minimum and for me, Maxalon was not enough even when the dose was doubled. Given that it was the weekend when I was working through this, I didn't get a script for anything stronger until late on Day 5. I guess that's what happens with first chemo treatments, though. Tell your onc that you suffer badly and he/she may give you a script in case. I'm certainly going to ask for stronger when I see mine next. I did get nausea quite badly during the infusion and was given a very strong drug (but was too out of it to remember what it was) that made me very groggy - I was asleep in the car on the way home.
