Sancuso patch for nausea

Has anyone tried the Sancuso patch for nausea that is apparently very new? My husband David was given this today by his chemo infusion nurse as a trial. David was diagnosed in April 2008 stage 3C and underwent resection and then six months of chemo which he completed in October. In late December, scans found a spot in his liver and it was biopsed and confirmed to be cancer. He is taking four rounds of Folfori plus Avastin and is experiencing nausea for the first time. We are praying for a successful liver surgery in April.

Thanks so much for all your help. I rarely post but I can't tell you how much great information and most important, hope, I receive from reading your posts. So many side effects are improved because someone posts a remedy here that really does work!

    it is too new for me to have tried it, but I am hopeful it will work! I hope you will keep us posted on how it works or doesn't for David. He's an angel for working to help improve this disease for others who come behind him! I pray David does well on chemo and that he is able to get that beast out of his liver! Stay strong and keep us posted.
