advise please Docetaxel and bad nausea..is it me !?

Hi

Could it be the other way around and it is acid reflux (too much acid) making you nauseous ? Being sick with Docetaxel can happen but is uncommon...

Have you tried Gaviscon or something similar to try and calm it down ?

Just thinking aloud, G n' J

Thanks Dreamthief, appreciate your time in replying.

Perhaps it is me then...I was more sick on my previous Docetaxel session, and ended up being admitted to hospital with it, so this I have tried my anti-sickness med and Gaviscon to no avail and have now stopped eating and drinking plenty of water !

Here's hoping xx

Hi

Ooh Bugger!  You had better keep a close watch on this in case the same is happening :-/

Are you taking any other meds like Bisphosphonates as they can cause excess acid ?

Hey G n' J

Nope I don't think so just the basic anti sickness and Omeprazole to help with acid xx

Hope it settles down overnight...  If not do ask for some help from onco or gp.

Always at the weekend too isn't it

G n' J

Thanks

Will have to ring hospital tomorrow if no improvement, see if I can get some other medication..and it's often Fridays or weekends  isn't it !! xx

I’m so with you with the nausea thing. I’ve had mine changed once and they worked fabby. This time not so as I’ve had new meds added. But I phoned the help line tonight and we now have a new plan. Don’t suffer ... phone for help. It’s horrible x
