Jag,
I have not been on that combo. What I was told was to drink a lot of water the day before or as I did, the day of. I drank the whole 64 oz required in one day. My Dr. told me it doesn't matter how long the chemo is in your body, it won't make a difference, so wash it out and you'll feel better.

I was just talking to my cousin about it, because her sister (my cousin) just got dx last week and she said she never got sick but she made herself go in with a solid meal. light, like a sandwich. Me, I ate while I was there. You hate to tell anyone something and then if it doesn't work, you feel bad.

The pre-meds they give now are pretty good. I never got sick, felt sick once, but never lost it. Best of Luck, it's scary but with you there helping out, you can always change things as they go along to fit her needs. Take Care, K
