Metastatic bone cancer with unknown primary: Anyone else?

Thank u for ur kind thoughts. I was due for a colonoscopy on Tuesday as well as a colposcopy. Theatre times changed, as did radiotherapy schedule,
So no colonoscopy now. I think that would have covered some of the small bowel. Either way I’m resigned now to one thing at a time. And doubt whether a primary will be found.
The chemo infusions have stopped for the time being,
and,I’m taking 3000mg of chemo tablets plus nausea tablets a day. I will try to stick to this treatment till the end.

@susan38 Are the anti nausea tablets helping now? If not be sure and tell them, because there are a few different ones they can try if one is not working for you.
When I had proton beam radiation for my spine, it pretty much hit everything in my bowels. I was so sick from it for months after, with a total loss of appetite, nausea and diarrhea. I actually ended up doing better with an over the counter vs the prescribed pills, plain old short acting dramamine helped me best. I would take it shortly before meals and was able to keep the food down. It made me very tired but I would rather be tired and sleeping, than feeling nauseas and throwing up.
