Hi, Mary: I had seven chemo treatments. They sort of "sandwiched" them.
Gave me the roughest at first and at the last -- gave me sort of a "break"
in the middle. The tough ones were just that!! I couldn't have stood it
without the Zophran -- I was losing so much weight. They also had to give
me something like Amodian AD (but prescription) for the diarrhea. I
completely lost control. It was humiliating! Remember, though, dear --
today I feel one hundred percent! Hugs to you and Angelo -- Kathy
