@callie1234, how is your brother doing? Did his oncology team suggest that he get medications to help with the nausea, vomitting, etc for the next chemo session?

That seemed to be a one time thing. Now it’s just the insomnia that is really getting to him. He does his 4th round tomorrow but he got some really good news at his appointment Friday. When he started all this, his blood marker of the tumor was a 24.2 and is now down to a 9.1. Sounds like the chemo is doing its job. The doctor wants him to finish 6 rounds before they do a c-t scan. Is all this normal in your opinion.
