Nausea meds

I had Taxol not Taxotere but close enough. No nausea meds - heavy Benadryl and I think decadron before first couple (snooze time for me at the cancer center!), then lighter Benadryl for next one, then nothing before the rest of the series. I think the taxanes are the "aches and pains" drug - not the heavy nausea drugs (altho my apologies to those who did experience nausea with them!!) I did 12 weekly Taxols - had flu-y aches for a few days in between, but found it all to be very bearable. Good luck with your treatment. Jo
