My father is 10 days out from his second cycle of rchop. He has started to vomit small amounts but has no nausea. he says he gets a foul taste in his mouth then he just vomits. has this ever happened to anyone? I am not sure whether to call his doctor or not. He isn't drinking a lot because he is afraid he will get sick

My mom had this on her first treatment. About 10 days later, she had a bad stomach ache and then spend the night vomiting. She had her check up appointment the next day and they gave her some fluids and she felt much better. I would call if he isn't due for an appointment and see about getting him in. They will make him feel better. I hope your dad feels better soon!!

I would call your doctor and see what he/she thinks. I was told to call if I had a fever, vomiting, or for anything that lasted more than a few days. It's better to be safe than sorry. Let us know how you do. Take care...Sue (FNHL-2-3a-6/10)

I agree with the others, call the doctor's office for advice.
I only vomitted one time and I'm pretty sure that was because I
was constipated and hadn't "gone" in several days.

Regarding the foul taste, maybe he can rinse his mouth out occasionally
or use some mint candy or someting to help with that. There was one
antibiotic I was on that left a bitter taste in my mouth as I recall.

I hope he gets it resolved.

Hugs,

Jim
