Nausea and the Big Chop
First chemo was last Monday and I have been battling what seems to be endless waves of nausea all week - virtually have gone through all the tablets I was given as I can't seem to shake these feeling...
Hi Lunanoire
I'm also on round 1 of chemo. First one on 17th September - 5 days of feeling horrid. Lost my sense of taste the day I had the chemo. I did find that eating small amounts of food during day did help with nausea. But finding something to eat that you really feel like eating is the problem! I'm now in the space of feeling really good and am enjoying this short space of time till my next treatment. I've certainly learnt some stuff and will hopefully be more prepared for second round of chemo on 8th October. I too have cut my hair off into bob - I'm even going to look at getting a wig this week. Stay strong, as my oncologist nurse told me, this is a journey and we will get thru it. I wish you all the best for the next couple of months.
