Barb, right now I wouldn't even want to think about eating smile

Starting around 6:00 PM here yesterday the naseua waves began.

Since my last post around 8:00PM, I've thrown up several times.

I took one of the Compazine, and it helped after a while for about 3 or 4 hours.

I took another about 5 hours after the first.

The heartburn has been outta sight too! Between it and the vomitting I haven't had more than a few sips of water, and am worried about dehydration setting in.

Rolaids doesn't touch the heartburn much at all.

I have a liquid Zantac, which helps a little after a delay.

UUUgh! I can't imagine how I'll manage to lay on the Radiation table long enough without puking today.... :-(

It's 6:40 AM here, so I'll call the Dr's office at 9:00 AM and ask about Reglan, I think that may be the best choice next.

I guess this is just the beginning...
