Haha on the typos. I seem to find most of them after the submitting something. By default, I have become quite friendly with the edit button. I totally understand. And you are welcome.
First off, he is a stud for not taking the nausea meds. I took Odansetron. It did not make me anxious. In fact, it gave me peace of mind. I had been vomiting so long from the cancer symptoms that I was relieved that something was supposed to help. Maybe it was mental. Who knows. I am aware of the potential symptoms, but I have to feel it to make it real for me. Also, don't project what happens to others onto yourself. If others have a harder time with the second cycle, be aware of that. Don't expect it. Everyone reacts differently, Unfortunately, it does take some trial an error to find what works for each patient. I am guilty of the veggie smoothies as well. I hate vegetables. I go the smoothie route myself. In reference to his job being physical, I think that is great. Keep it up. I believe the more active you are, the better it is for your treatment. I now hike a few miles a day most days. I think it helps. Did he not share his diagnosis with coworkers? I completely understand that as I initially did the same thing. After a concerned coworker talked to me, I found most others were very supportive. Like the cancer, each work environment is different. Navigating it as well has its own unique obstacles.
I hope any of this helps. Please share back. The first part is getting going. You have made that first step. Folks here are great at being honest about what worked, and what didn't, on their journey.
