You should not be fasting during chemo. That is against every protocol I've read. There are very effective drugs for nausea. Take the advice of your oncologist or your infusion nurses. I had 16 infusion treatments with these drugs and never once had more than mild queasiness that dissipated with the meds. Best advice? Talk to your infusion nurses. They have a wealth of knowledge and advice ready to be tapped.

When I had my 1st infusion...the nurse asked if I wanted lunch..I wasn't hungry..so I said..No I didn't want any lunch & the nutrionst was in my cubicle & said to me...You need to eat especially about to recieve chemo & you don't want to take those harsh drugs on an empty stomach....
So I told the nurse...Yes...please vring.me lunch..it was good that nutrionist was there...
So my lunch consisted of a Tuna Sandwich, a fruit cup; Lorna Doorne cookies; bag of chips; cranberry juice & apple juice!
I enjoyed it, needless to say!
