2 weeks down and on the road to feeling better for my husband. First chemo treatment brought nausea, fatigue, loss of appetite, change in taste, and a very sore mouth. Also to date he's lost 15 pounds. I'm very concerned about that big of a weight loss in such a short amount of time. He has one more week off before doing it again, chemo #2.
