Hi
I finished radiochemotherapy 6 weeks ago. I still feel nauseous. Is this normal?
Thank you
Mya
Hi Mya,
I still have nausea , nearly 2 years post treatment but it is getting better .. I take an anti sickness tablet , plenty of mineral water and stop what I’m doing for a short while .. after many a gp visit and oncologist not offering advice , I’ve been told IBS following chemo/radiotherapy …
Take care

Hi Chrissie
I look forward to it getting better even if it is a long way off! I have to say the anti sickness tablets do help most of the time
take care

My mantra , good days , not so good days but always positive days …
big hugs xx
Hello Mya
Nausea wasn't something I suffered from, ether during or after chemo/radiotherapy. But you have my sympathy, I have had nausea lots of other times and it is miserable.
It is good the tablets help, hopefully one day very soon you will wake up and not need them anymore.
