Just curious -- any tips on overcoming the queasiness associated with a chemo (Cisplatin).

During my first treatment, it only lasted 2-3 days and I was fine. But it's been a week since my second infusion, and I still feel "not right" in the stomach department. I still haven't been sick (i.e. vomitted) yet, but imagine being car sick or sea sick and someone shoving food in your face.

"Eat!"

"Ummm, no way Jose..."

Just curious how some of you beat this. I need the calories!! Don't want to waste away...
