So glad he's going to talk to his doctor! Many hugs to you. From what you've shared on this board since I've been here, it's so obvious how much you love your H and what a wonderful advocate and supporter you are for him. He's very lucky to have you by his side.

I am so sorry you are going through this.
I'm glad he's going to the dr to see if things can be adjusted! I suggest maybe switching from zofran to phenergren - it made such a huge difference w me! Zofran just made me constipated and didn't really work at all.
Glad to hear the update and that he is still open to discussing treatment options. Sending lots of good thoughts that he finds a good alternative. And hugs to you.

Hopefully you guys will have a new plan after Weds. that involves come kind of continued treatment. What a long and exhausting and draining thing to go through.
UPDATE: DH has an appointment with his oncologist on Wednesday to talk about stopping treatment, long term prognosis, AND the possibility of new meds (from the suggestions everyone have me, thank you!).
For done of you who asked, yes DH uses mj for the nausea and it helps a little bit. He doesn't smoke it anymore, he does medibles or he makes THC capsule. He said smoking it makes him feel high and I'm like...that's the point. :-)
Thank you a million times over for the outpouring of love, prayers, good vibes, and hugs. You all mean so much to me. You are always here for me no matter what and I'm lucky to have you in my life. Love you all so much!
I didn't reread everything, but good luck and I'm sorry you both have to deal with this. I did want to say there are much better antiemetics than Zofran so they should be able to help that if he continues.
