Re: Too old for Chemo
good for you! You are as young as you feel, you may, however feel a bit older 2-3 days after chemo, but as you said you are strong! My Oncologist prescribed Emend for me to take day of chemo and for the following two days. It was covered by my insurance. I only had very minimal nausea using this, I think I only took "as needed" medication ~ 3 times.
Stay strong and Be Well!
