    Is he drinking plenty and have you checked his temperature  - just with him shaking I wondered if he has a temperature - if yes you should ring the chemo unit for advice (or if closed emergency dept ). Also make sure he is taking his follow up meds at the correct time regarldless of whether he feels sick or not. Hope he is ok, Jools x
