Finding a way to deal with the side effects of chemo are different for everyone, @rose4jim2417. I am glad that he has found that Coca Cola works for him.
Has his doctor indicated how long he will be taking the chemo?

His Dr. initially wanted him to take a break from chemo after six months but with about 20% shrinkage after each three month cycle and good lab results, he said he can stay on it for up to 13 months. He will be receiving the lanreotide monthly injections for the rest of his life. If the cancer becomes more aggressive he will resume chemo.
