He couldn't talk for over a month because everytime he tried he would gag and throw up. He took both Zofran and Compazine for the continuous nausea. HANG IN THERE - the end is in site. You can do it! Talk to you MO about stronger anti-nausea meds and keep pushing fluids through your PEG. John always felt worse when he wasn't getting enough fluids.
