Chemo and thyroid S

I have rectal cancer and am thru round 2 of chemo now. Have discovered I had a severe reaction when I took my thyroid S and anti-sickness together on Saturday. I suspect the thyroid S had been adding significantly to my nausea. I was wretching for hours ;(. Called the acute line, who said to have out of hours come give me a shot of anti-sickness. 5 hours later the doc got to me with no shot and no meds!

I've gone back to thyroxine today, but it is making me somewhat jittery and can't keep my legs still (only 50mg).

Anyone else have a bad reaction during chemo too?
