Hang in there

I will have my 2nd treatment of the same drugs this week. Personally, they were harder on me than the FEC. I am hoping this week will be vastly different.

My doctor also prescribed Emend and Kytril. Be aware they are really expensive dependent upon your prescription coverage. They work extremely well for me. I also tend to suck on hard candies to help keep the nausea at bay.

A friend asked a local pharmacist for suggestions and he led her Jolly Rancher Sours. They are so sour they make you smile while you suck on them, and they work remarkably well. They are pastel colored - not the transparent ones you typically see. If you can't find them in the store, they are a Hershey product you might find on line.

Remember,"This too shall pass"
