@kpkxrn , I'm so sorry that you are facing this. I remember the early days of my diagnosis, when the lymph nodes in my chest were pressing on everything, making it difficult to breath. I was down to a wheeze and coughing a lot. I had completely lost my appetite but as long as I kept eating even a little bit, I wasn't experiencing the nausea that you are describing. This sounds miserable.
Has your medical team offered any advice? Anti-nausea medication?
When are you scheduled to begin treatment? Hopefully soon, as you need some relief. Hugs.

I have determined that I will not do the chemo regime. There are too many metastasized areas and I still need an MRI if the brain. I have read all the stuff on the different sites and I see no value in an extra 12 weeks of misery added to the misery I have been dealing with.
Thanks for the good thoughts. Doc gave me Zofran for nausea but it seems to only allow me to eat the same amount of food, still nauseous but so far haven thrown up after .
