I really can't believe this is happening so soon. Even with the compazine, Richard has thrown-up a few times since midnight. I have a call into the doctor for a stronger med and I'l talk to them when they get in this morning. This seems way to early to start with these symptoms and then have to get to the rad appt today. I'm very nervous about this fast reaction. How on earth will we make it through 7wks of this? I'm hoping another anti-nausea med will work. Yesterday, the nurses said to call if he vomited and they would give him another drug. Will they change the chemo because of this quick reaction? I'll keep you posted and if anyone has any feedback, please post... Geri
