First chemo 7/6 TC on 3 week cycle. Deca made me superhuman day 2, day 3 I had massive diarrhea and day 4 still very depleted. Anyone on same regimen have similar experience or can share what the ebb/flow is going forward. I think I messed up by taking a colace w/zofran and clearly didn't need it.

On brat diet and making my way back, eggs and toast staying down but not much appetite, continuing fluids. Question on nausea - really what should I call nausea? I haven't vomited but just really tight gurgly stomach (completely done in my the diarrhea I guess-took immodium for that). Or feel like just top of breastbone is stuck. When do you know to stop taking the zofran as I don't feel "right" yet but not ever super nauseous. Also, does nausea continue to come and go throughout 3 weeks, trying to figure out my kit for work asssuming I am strong enough fri. or mon. Hoping I feel better tomorrow....ps - I have ILC stage II, lumpectomy in May but onca onlyu 23 so decided to hit it with whatever I can. And, does the zofran make you feel "tight"? Thx.
