Ive read here about people using dehumidifier and nebulizer which I have started using. 

But is there any other advice on this topic as struggling to cope with it as constantly feeling nausea. 

Pretty much all nutrition down the tube now but the build up of secretions is driving me nuts 

Any advice 

  • Oh you poor thing!

    I remember how sick I felt and I could throw up practically to order.

    The only thing that helped me was lots of spitting (sorry), drinking vast amounts of warm water and regular metoclopramide.

    It stopped suddenly about four weeks after treatment ended....

  • I agree with the Bee, get it out it's to much hassle swallowing it as it rarely goes down, I just took it out in a tissue.

    Hi

    I'm very grateful for the advice and the hot water is definitely helping it's keeping it bareable. 

    Just keep running back and forward to the kettle and make sure ive got the next one about ready. 

    The wee things help and are amazing 

    Thanks
