quick question about nausea

theresemarie3

I was wondering how many people would be willing to try acupuncture for chemotherapy induced nausea?  And if you were willing to use acupuncture when would you want to recieve it?  For example, would you want it on the same day as chemo or would you prefer it to be spaced out?

Thank you to everyone for the feedback:)

I work at an Integrative Cancer Center where they also offer acupuncture. Several of our cancer survivors are receiving acupuncture treatments but I would have to check whether they are coming in on the same day as chemo or not. That's a very good question.

I did acupuncture the day after some of my chemo treatments and while it was very relaxing I didn't experience any less nausea the treatments I used it, compared to the ones I didn't.  It didn't help me at all, but I wish you luck.  I hope it helps you.
