I finally had a good treatment this week..I didn't get sick hardly at all...A MIRICAL...They reduced my chemo by 50% and gave me antinausea meds with sedatives in it..I also started to take ginger root pills for neausea that seemed to help too..I also was on Zofran and dexatron...Then they pumped me up with fluids and potassium and I didn't have any dry heaves or really anyproblems this time...So I am very happy this time..Now just waiting for reults of CEA test cause this is the first time I completed my whole treatment in 4 cycles..Hopefully it helped some....JULIE
