I have had cyclosphamide treatment which has stablized my lungs.The 1st one made me feel a bit heady.Its important to take the anti sickness tablets.The second I was violently ill for 11 hours.After two visits to out of hours doctor I ended up having an anti sickness injection which worked almost instantly.The 3rd I was fine.I think the key is.If you feel even slightly heady take the anti sicknes tablets straight away.
