Feeling a lot better about my next round of chemo

Hi all,

I saw my oncologist yesterday and she is going to lower the dose for me, and is prescribing some anti sickness tablets. I think they’re called Akynezo and also Domperidome, so it should be a little easier this time.

I’m feeling a little more relaxed about it now. So hopefully my next round of chemo on Friday will be a lot better than last time. Keep your fingers crossed for me please.

Hugs Tay xx

Fingers crossed. Did they think you could have a reaction to carbo?

My consultant said it was likely that it was a reaction, so she’s lowered the dose a little. She also said that I was extremely dehydrated when I first went into the chemo unit after I’d called them. So the anti sickness meds should help a lot this time, right from the beginning. xx

Glad you have sorted that out now and hope it works for you. I remember way back when I had chemo that I was given anti sickness pills before each start of the chemo and given some to take home as well. xx
