Hi Littlepaw,

Like Nurse Kris asked, can they give you phenergan prior to or at the start of your infusion to prevent the nausea and vomiting?

I can't take pain meds without also taking Phenergan due to the nausea caused by the pain med. Phenergan is my favorite drug but it does make one drowsy.

Anything that will prevent me from nausea is my BEST friend. I am not that good at handling pain, but you might as well put me in a pine box and throw mud on top of it when it comes to nausea and vomiting.

To have BOTH, pain and nausea at the same time is pure torture. I am so sorry this infusion was so bad for you.

Glad you are feeling better now. Let's hope that you have no other problems pop up beyond what you have already endured.
