Rang the bell for radiation. Chemo is next. Still throwing up with the radiation and opiates though 😞 Any help with the throwing up would be awesome.

Congratulations on ringing the bell for radiation - that's a significant milestone worth celebrating! Nausea during treatment can be really challenging, and there are several anti-nausea medications that oncology teams can prescribe to help manage these side effects more effectively. It's worth having a conversation with your medical team about adjusting or trying different anti-nausea options, as finding the right combination often takes some trial and adjustment to get the best relief.

Did they give you Zofran? It seemed to help ease the nausea. Hope you feel better soon.
