Many cancer patients see a therapist to help them to deal with their emotions. Some caregivers get help for themselves as well.
Im sorry, I do not know the answer to your vomiting question. Recovery can vary greatly from patient to patient. I hope you are able to see an improvement in your husband if you compare his current state to how he was immediately following finishing his treatments. Surgeries can take a while to get over. If his surgery was 6 weeks ago he should be feeling better, maybe not 100% but some better. Check with the doc.
Best wishes with continued improvements!
