First AC chemo yesterday
I had my first chemo session yesterday. I was doing ok, had lunch and had a nap a few hours later. I wake up from the nap a little hungry and while waiting for food I started feeling a bit funny/nause...
Hi @Fernweh
You sounds exactly like I felt for my first round last fortnight. Definitely talk to your oncologist about the meds not working for you as there are other ones that they can give you. I’ve been given wafers for this next round as the pills just weren’t cutting it for me either. I ended up going up to ED about three hours after treatment and was given fluids and meds through the IV which finally gave me some relief. Don’t be scared to ask for fluids to replenish you when you see the nurses tomorrow.

All the best for your next round. I hope it goes a little smoother for you.
