Penile melanoma --Melanoma is NOT just skin cancer!

@texastribble That's great to read your husband's nausea issue is held at bay right now! What medication was it that he took, and only one dose! Yeah! Isn't it amazing how such a small thing like that can change the way we feel so much?
I wonder if the decrease in breath is due to muscle soreness/discomfort in the chest cavity area? But then, you're the expert in all that type of thing...
Do you ever join him on his walks? A chance to just get out and enjoy some fresh air, perhaps nothing needs to be said. Or some bits of time and space, alone.

Ginger the medication that stopped the nausea is prochlorper--that is the generic for compazine. 10 mg tablet to take as needed---after the first one he has not needed! It was amazing.
Hopefully we will get in tomorrow to see the PA about his low o2 levels and get some oxygen for him at least when he sleeps.
When I talked to the nurse about this earlier today, she asked if he is ready to stop treatments. I said he would have to talk to the doctor about it. I am so concerned. As fast as this has grown--from NED in April, to lungs full of nodules 1.7 cm in July, then to 7-8 cm by August. I don't see how the treatments could have stopped it with growing so quickly. And, then from Aug, to the end of Sept. for him to start having trouble breathing. And, the cancer is in other areas as well-----
