Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 2,676 | This morning I ran to the pharmacy and got the anti nausea med. prescribed by John's Chemo Doc. After he read the instructions and the Drug precaution sheet, he called me to come read it too. It stated that this drug could cause a prolonged erection, and if that happened-call the Doctor immediately. John said to me that if that happened, the Doc. would DEFINITELY NOT be the 1st person he would call  It's nice to find things to laugh about. Amy
