Hi Everyone,

I'm finally getting my first chemo treatment tomorrow. Is there any way I should prepare myself?   Should I eat/not eat? Take something for naseau before the treatment/during?   Any advice is appreciated.  

Thanks, Ninel

    Ninel, On the Chemo forum (about 6 forums below this forum on the main discussion board page) are several topics on things to do to help you through chemo. Just check that out.

    Ninel -- hi !!

    hydration and food and sleep -- was what i had to do .try to sleep the night before -- so that you are rested and can handle what comes later. I took  TAC all at same time - the taste buds go -- lemon helps and food I ate was bland --. my onc provided pre- meds  and i never got sick.

    what chemo are you going to be taking?? we are all different-- you will do well !!!!!!

    best of luck to you!!!!!!
