Re: Chemo build up

Hi KG ... it sure feels like there is a build-up; maybe it's just that
it takes time for the chemo to wear us down. It happened to me after my 4th treatment ... I was waiting for the 'rebound' but it never arrived.

I'm sure your mom will be fine. Talk to her onc and nurses about the nausea . There are many medications to try ... they don't work the same way for everyone. Kytril worked for me. Keep the faith!!!
