Hi, my Dad is currently starting his fourth week of
Erbitux/Radiation . . . he wanted me to ask if anyone had problems with severe nausea and if it tends to get worse as time goes on . . . He takes the Ethyl Amifostine shot to help preserve his salivary glands. He also takes an anti-nausea pill (Ondansetron) 1/2 hr. before treatment. The past few days he felt very sick during radiation treatment and had to go home and just go to sleep. Any suggestions? We know everyone reacts differently, but he was just curious about others experiences. Thanks.
