I tried Emend and it worked pretty well, but I am telling you what worked the absolute best is Marijuana. For me, it took the nausea completely away for 2 full hours ( so I could get some calories in!). Nothing else worked as well. If you can get some, give it a try. I tried the pills (Marinol) but they made me tired and did not work as well.

I was given Zofran and it worked for me. I was given it as a pre-med before chemo was given and had to take the night of chemo and 2 days after. Never really had a problem. Also was given compazine if I needed it. Did take a few throughout my 8 cycles of bi-weekly chemo but didn't need it much. When the A/C was over I never experienced nausea again. Taxol only caused lots of body pain.

Hugs to you.
