Zofran is controlling mom's nausea moderately. Doctor added Compazine...it completely whacked her out. She cannot take antihistamines because she climbs the wall and I think this Compazine worked the same on her as other meds. She felt like her body would not stop moving...shaking inside...felt like her throat was closing up. We were able to give her a dose of Ativan to settle her down and the doctor seems to definintely think she was having an adverse reaction to the medicine. Any suggestions or medicines that anyone has found to work better? She's freezing eating all the ice chips :-) But at least it helps control the "ickies" she has in her stomach. I'm just so glad we are on day 5 of the chemo and then get that break.
Thanks

I know my father took Kytril through his chemo, and radiation and he didn't have any nausea symptoms. He had stage 4 GBM. Hope that helps. Take care.
