Gary, It sounds like so far the chemo isn't causing you any nausea which is great, If it does, if the compazine works for you in preventing chemo nausea, you'll be one of the few here who has had it work. They started me off using compazine too but it was pretty useless after the first chemo treatment (although the suppositories did help somewhat when any pills I swallowed came right back up). You may want to see if you can get a prescription for Zofran, which is expensive but MUCH more effective if you run into serious nausea from the chemo.

Sounds like you are doing pretty well so far (I don't blame you for wanting to be ayt home and not nin the hospital for as long as you can).
