Thank you for the replies. Todd was on Compazine for 4 days prior to chemo. They gave him Axoil thru IV which we were told was for nausea. He is taking the Zofran every 6 hours which has helped a little bit. They also prescribed Roxicet (similiar to Percaset) and a sleeping aid Ativan. He most comfortable when he takes the Roxicet and Ativan becasue he can sleep. He is also throwing up, what he describes as foamy suds. The Dr said that is the cancer cells breaking up. Any further suggestions that can be given before the next chemo next Tuesday would be very appreciated. He did agreee to a feeding tube becasue of no food intake.
