    She needs to discuss this with her doctors. There are many medications that can help with nausea, but 3 weeks after surgery is a long time for it to last. 

    Numbness could be due to chemotherapy. Taxanes (Taxol, Taxotere) especially can cause this. 

    Weakness could be due to either chemo or surgery -- or both.

    Again, she needs to see her doctors -- medical oncologist and surgeon.
