I suffer chronic nausea and difficulty eating food. The nausea makes me feel unwell all of the time. I have been diagnosed with kidney cancer on the right side. Prescription drugs for the nausea don’t seem to have much effect, I feel I am in a lonely place right now. Nothing seems to give me relief.
Hi Ruckyjungle and welcome to the chat group.
I’m sorry to read you are struggling with nausea and feeling so unwell. I’d recommend speaking to your CNS (cancer nurse specialist) to let them know you don’t feel your anti nausea drugs are working.
It is possible that they could arrange for different drugs to be prescribed for you. I know when I didn’t get on with a particular anti nausea med I got it changed to another one which worked much better for me. Please don’t suffer in silence.
As you’ve been diagnosed with kidney cancer, you may like to join the kidney cancer group and post there to see how others have managed.

I hope things improve for you and you’ll be able to connect with others who have been through similar experiences.

Hi again Ruckyjungle
That’s good you’re seeing your gp and consultant this week. Hopefully they’ll be able to get this nausea sorted out for you. I’m sorry to hear you also have prostate cancer. It’s all a lot to deal with.
I’ll give you a link to the prostate cancer support forum, which is a very active and helpful group you can join if you feel if you’d like to.
My friend Brian (Millibob who is the Community Champion for that group, would be pleased to welcome you to the group and help you with any questions on prostate cancer and treatment.
Sarah xx
