@jjohnson8747 You need to try and eat small amounts of food several times a day. I have the same issues when I eat. I noticed when I eat like a bird. Those symptoms go away. Hematology tells me to see the GI department that it has nothing to do with Lymphoma I say it does like you. Sighing. Tomorrow I have an appointment with my Gi Dr. I get acid reflex so bad it feels like swords are going down my throat. Doc's claim it's Gerd and I need to take 40 ml of Omeprazole 2 times whether i eat or not to halt the burning sensation and the stabbing chest pains.

Thanks for the idea of eating smaller meals! That's something I haven't tried. Sorry to hear about your pain! Hope you can get some good information from your doctors. I have a pet scan at the end of September to check things out.

Thank you. Has anyone had the experience of this getting better as your body adjusts? So far it’s getting worse, not better. Also the severe weakness that has made it difficult to do anything but stay in bed. So discouraging. Another 5 months of this is hard to face. Anyone facing decision to do stem cell transplant versus maintenance chemo? Thoughts?
