Third dose chemo

[RwHayes]

Hi all,

I had third dose today( only etoposide , steroids, fluid) felt a little bit less fuzzy this morning but feel kind of rough right now . No bad side effects just run down and minor nausea . Every time I think I will be sick it goes away so far so good.

Thanks for being here ,

Did you get the sublingual Zofran or did they prescribe tablets? At this stage it should be the sublingual. Also, I found that if I set alarms and took the Dex every 4 hours whether you felt I needed it or not, it controlled my nausea better.

Congrats in getting through your first week.

They gave some in fluids and also gave me two tablets zofan each time before infusion ,along with 4 steroid tablets, and gave me a script to take zofan 8mg every 8 hrs, and phenergan to take inbetween as needed.

Thanks Denzie ,

P.s. do you think in the morning will be more or less tired and fuzzy than this morning?

Somehow I overlooked the last part of your note. I suspect you woke up a bit foggy this am.
