The thing is this is one week post infusion and I am getting worse. I ate small amount 1/2 c of plain noodles at7:30 ish, 10:00 p.m rools around and my stomach starts to churn and I know I'm going to hurl. So in I go and then what comes up but the noodles and saliva, stomach acid and blood. I now feel as if I have strep throat. I may or maynot but that is the feeling, my upper esophagus is raw. I drank some baking soda and water to try to stop the burning. I live in a small community and there is not a 24 hr drug store. i am popping rolaides to try to combat the acid. I will get some thing like malox or whatever the Pharmacist suggests. This is insane!!!! I would ask for something but he's on holidays and his Nurse said to call her back on Monday if I needed anything. She is not hearing me. I am not being depressed or a DQ here. Now I am pissed off, excuse me, very angry.
