I am day 3 of radiation and had my first of 6 doses of cisplatin on tuesday. After my first rad on Monday night I started feeling nausea, tuesday was worse and I threw up 4 times, this morning threw up, haven;t since but then again I'm scared to eat now! Doesn't matter if I eat orally or through my PEG, it all comes out. Any suggestions? I think its a bit early for side effects, don't you think?

I'm taking my antinausea meds but they don't help if they keep getting puked out.

I'm on day 2 of IV fluids due to the dehydration.

I'm really not looking forward to the rest of the treamtnet if its gonna be like this!!! I thought the first 2 weeks were suppose to be a breeze!LOL

I sure hope the rest of the week goes better!
