I took Adriamycin with Cytoxen. I took all the anti nausea meds and had very little nausea. Emend is terrific and I would definitely see if your mom can get it. I did not feel well a few days following treatment which was every 3 weeks and then about 5 days before next treatment I would feel better. I had other side effects and was very weak and tired. My white count kept going down so I needed the shots for that and I did run fevers each treatment which made me feel pretty yucky. One emergency visit while on Adriamycin due to very high fever. But I made it through and it has been 2+ years since. Best of luck and make sure mom takes all her meds when she is suppose to...this will really help.
