Thank you best of luck with yours xxAbbydog said:So sorry to hear how it was for you.
I was well warned of what to expect.
Was given an oral drug to take prior to chemo which is supposed to help with nausea for around 3 days.
It was Netupitant300mg/Paolosetron 500mcgms, maybe it is working. It has a side effect of constipation. I now know how much Coloxyl with Senna to take and offset that problem.
I'm also given an ice block to suck during one of my drugs. I'm told it helps to prevent mouth ulcers. So far so good.
I hope that your Oncologist can help.
