Even our med. onc. last year had recommended it to us when Andrew was on 3 major drugs, Emend being the most powerful, that still weren't doing the trick. <BR/><BR/>Also, everybody reacts differently to the drugs. One of the anti-nausea steroids Andrew was on made him feel like he had major caffeine. He decided not to take it the last chemo dose, and he slept for nearly 7 days, waking only to eat. Sleep was really what he needed and he was able to do that instead of be aware of the nausea. He said the worst kind of torture has got to be forcing someone to stay awake when all they really need to do is sleep.Grace Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14267571028870160287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5016122443970651771.post-21624337822754342452008-05-06T18:56:00.000-07:002008-05-06T18:56:00.000-07:00Does Dave get premeded with 32mg of Zofran?
