Hi Friends,
My husband, Jim is still having intermittant queasiness even though his last rad. treatment was 6 weeks ago and his last chemo was 9 weeks ago. When he last saw his MO she told him to stop taking his Zofran because he should not need it anymore. Wrong! Granted, he DOES have days when he feels fine, i.e. yesterday he felt great, but today he's a little nauseous. Has anyone experienced this nausea off and on so long after treatment? At first we blamed it on the mucous but he has not had much mucous lately so it can't be that. Is the chemo still in his body causing it?

It is frustrating in that just when you think you're getting better, the next day it's back to square one.

Thanks,
Debbie
