Hi-Tried to post twice earlier and lost both of them in the void. We used Zofran on 1st round but it wasn't enough and the vomiting was endless. He tended to be better a day before the next chemo treatment, and was having radiation at the same time. The vomiting got ahead of us from the start, which is an issue. 2nd and 3rd rounds of chemo used Emend with Zofran and this worked much better. Rarely vomited, and if he did it was the mucusy stuff as opposed to stomach contents. Was still nauseous, and diarrhea which was life threatening was a huge problem, but we used homeopathy when the nausea got bad with relief. Also used acidil (combination) when acid seemed to be getting ahead of us and got immediate relief, which is more than I could say for Tums or Maalox. A homeopath would probably say the toxins in the chemo would make the remedies not work, but that's not my experience. Mentioned homeopathy to oncologist who did not object (she was raised in Europe where homeopathy is much more widely accepted and used). I would not use liquid zeolite during chemo or even for a while after, since it flushed out heavy metals which are frequently the base in chemo drugs, and would always tell any supplements since things can interact in strange ways at times. I suspect doctor just doesn't know much about homeopathy and is urging caution. This is a very rough regimen of chemo drugs. I'm going back to school as a student. Working on medical coding certificate in hopes it is work I can do at home if husband needs caretaker again, or find job in medical setting (with benefits) if not. We've been self employed for 20+ years, and he's only made it back to work parttime twice in the past 2 years, between surgeries and treatments. The disability check is not enough to live on, so I'm looking for options. I would think being a knidergarten teacher would get your mind off your Dad a few hours of the day, and bring a little joy to balance the sorrow of EC. Will keep you in my prayers.
