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-----

@texastribble Prochlorper csn certainly be a life-saver for many people, as your husband found out! My neighbor has to resort to that every so often, also.

I will be thinking of you and your husband tomorrow, and hope you have time in the next few days to let me know what he decides.
