Has anyone on here had tomotherapy? If you have, I have a question for you. Last week when we met with the RO he said the side effects is as bad as it is going to get. (after 16 of 33 treatments) Was this your experience?
Currently, my husband is having a really hard time getting any type of nutrition. He has a sensation in the back of his throat that is triggering his gag reflex. I realize this is separate from his stomach, but if he eats and it he gags everything comes up. Yesterday he had 3 boosts and probably threw up equal to one or two not sure I didn't watch. It is now almost 10am and he has not had anything to eat since lastnight around 7pm. The drugs he is taking is Kytril 2xday, decadron 2xday, compazine every 4-6 hours Ativan every 6 hours, and Zantec 2xday. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If we keep up at this rate, he will be heading for a hospital stay.
Thanks for your help
