Thought it was time to check in with you to see how treatment is going for the AML. Are you coming up on your next round soon?

Now that you have, one under your belt, so to speak you’ll know what to expect with the next 4! Hopefully you’ll be less fearful as time progresses.
If you’re experiencing nausea call your oncologist. There are meds you can take to help reduce that side effect of the treatment.
Over the counter items that can work are Queasy Drops. It’s a hard candy that can lessen the nausea. Candied ginger works a little as well. Another trick is a quick whiff of rubbing alcohol.
There may be some changes over the next couple of weeks with fatigue and lowering of your blood numbers. So if you have any questions, of course check in with your health care team. But don’t hesitate to post questions here! I’ve got your back, along with all your new friends here.
Hugs!
