My husband Jim has started his second cycle of chemo and has 19 radiation left. They increased his Fentanyl patch to 100 mcg which helps his pain and he is taking Decadron daily for the next week to help his nausea. It is amazing how much difference the Decadron has made because he was nauseous all the time. We are hoping they will let him continue taking the Decadron until he is at least finished with chemo in 2 weeks.
