Jon, I'm sorry you are having such a tough time with the nausea. My husband had a really rough time also. He tried the Emends and that did nothing. He was on both Zofran and Compazine all through treatment and up to a month after treatment ended. I think the nausea was a combination of the Cisplatin and the mucus. They also would give him anti-nausea drugs in the IV before the chemo.
