Hello to All.I have just finished seven days of ten of radiotherapy.And now beginning to have nausea attacts mostly in the morning.I know this can be one of the side effects of the treatment.But I suppose after seven days the radiation is now affecting my body.I have read MacMillian Dos and Donts and hope they will help.I have for ages drunk pepperment tea also I have liked Ginger biscuits.How do any fellow people cope.And how long does it last after treatment finishes.Hope you all are doing well.

  • Derek, I didn’t suffer from nausea during RT but my advice is to talk to the radiographers as they can normally help.  Good luck with the rest of the treatment.

    Best wishes, David

    Please remember that I am not medically trained and the above are my personal views.

  • Talk to your team, and then maybe talk to the MacMillan nurses on 0808 808 00 00. Between them they are likely to set you straight.

    My own side effects from the RT faded pretty quickly afterwards.

    Changed, but not diminished.
