Re: nausea
Kim,
Elaine's suggestion of new meds is a good option.
Emend is a great anti med along with Kytril. Two very strong anti meds.
Emend is great to prevent delayed nausea that may occur several days after receiving chemo.
As far as her stomach. Is she eating a fiber cereal? This could be creating some of the problem. Does she eat any yogurt? Yogurt provides some natural bacteria for the stomach...along with a banana in the morning.
Maybe some boiled rice with steamed veggies for lunch.
Then at dinner some chicken or fish with rice again.
Is she having any heart burn also?
Jean
