When nausea sets in its next to impossible to get ahead of it. Keep giving the meds even when you think the nausea has passed. Right now is when the worst of it begins so work even harder to keep the high calories and hydration. This will play a key role in how your BF feels. Soon it will be over and things will slowly return to normal. Best wishes!
