I have a six week treatment with radiation and Cisplatin. The chemo is one dose on day 1, then another in 3 weeks and one the final day. I was sick the day after, not real bad but I had to start on the ant-nausea pills . The sickness is whats really getting to me and I was wondering if it will subside? I've read on here that some folks are getting there chemo in more frequent doses, is there anyone who's had experience with the "every 3 week" doses? I was wondering if the long time span between doses let the crappy feeling wear off or does it just stay with you ?

-thanks for your time, Jody
