A Chemo Tip

 

I have been taking chemo treatments monthly (sometimes twice monthly) for 16 years; Jan 2025 started my 17th year.

One might say I have some experience.

Some of my treatment involved me taking what I call, WICKED CHEMO, and caused me to become very sick...  so much so that my wife had to take me to the ER to get me to quit vomiting.

The trick that I learned was this:

Ask for two different nausea meds.  My two are ZOFRAN and COMPOZINE.  As soon as your chemo treatments are over and not more than four hours afterwards (the sooner the better) take a nausea pill.

The package will say for you to take the pills every four hours...

HOWEVER...

and this is the trick...

You can take them every two hours IF YOU ALTERNATE between the two pills.

Once I started taking nausea pills every two hours after the WICKED CHEMO, I never got sick (Vomiting) again and no more trips to the ER.
