Re: Is this true? Getting sick question

I didn't understand your question too well, but its best to take anti nausea meds as its easier to prevent nausea than stop once it starts. Its also best to avoid public places while on chemo if possible,this is a given buit if I misunderstood your question I'm sorry. I'd like to add your friend is correct in that a simple cold can leave you in hospital with pneumonia once your white cell count is low from chemo.
