Geri

I had a bad reaction to Compazine. First it didnt work so they told me take more, use it every 3 hours. That turned into restlessness, I paced the floory unable to sit down or rest for about 48 hours. I was so exhausted, I walked around the house crying unable to sleep.

I was also given Zofran and Ativan and a few others. I remember the one pill was about $100 per pill. The nurses commented on it, they said I was awfully lucky to get that one. Cant remember which one it was or if it worked or not. I think the Zofran worked best for me.

With your husband being given large doses of chemo, it still may hit him in a few more days. Did they talk to you about "nadir" days? Thats about a week out when his blood levels will drop and it will make him feel lousy. Keep up the good work with hydration and nutrition. Pay attention to all the anti nasuea meds especially in a few more days, dont let him miss a dose.

Glad to hear he is doing better. Im sure you are relieved.
