Re: First TCH treatment - abdominal pain
I would have my TCH on Fri and wouldn't really feel effects until Sunday. I never did have stomach pains, but I am wondering if chicken soup with rice in it might make it feel better. Jean's idea of yogurt sounds good to help with the bacterial balance.
Another thing, by oncologist's regiment with the steroids (Decadron) was to take the day before, day of tx, and the day following.
