4. When my ex was doing chemo for non-Hodgkin's

he would do chemo...come home and work his ass off, then hit the bed when the sickness kicked in after a couple of days. Hell, he once painted the living room with a buffalo tube in his arm.

5. Sorry about that. My brother just finished a year of Interferon and it was like that

for him, too.

Get better, OK?

7. OMG, I didn't even know there was such a thing as oral chemo.

From one Marylander to another, get better soon! :pals:

8. Crystallised ginger has been shown to quell nausea

Or there are prescription meds, some given as suppository if you can't take stuff by mouth because of the nausea.

9. Get a script for Zofran (the kind that will dissolve). nt

10. My friend is going through that too

She takes Zofran and Compazine and they work really well, especially the Zofran.
I hope you're feeling better and don't have to take the chemo for very long.

Sometimes these drugs come in suppository form in case you are too nauseous to swallow anything.

11. Lavender flower tea

When I had morning sickness many years ago, lavender tea was about the only thing that helped.

Ginger is very good too.

Blessings of healing to you
