Hi benben,
Best of Luck for tomorrow!
Maybe you will not feel any nausia what so ever.
My husband never did, even though he stopped taking the anti-nausia drugs. His apetite and taste palete was never affected by the chemo.

I'm sure I've already lost a lot of those gains from being out of lifting for almost 2 months. Shifting gears to low weight and more reps just to maintain.

Tdubz wrote:Haha, same thing for me. Just as I'm getting comfortable and ready to go to sleep, I gotta get up and go to the bathroom. I actually enjoy chemo day, the pre meds make me nice and relaxed lol. Except for the pump, I'm already ready for this sucker to come off lol

My DH also had the very(!) frequent urination - for him that stopped after they stopped the steroids.
I hope you will not be affected, get hyperglycemia from the steroids, like my husband. It sounds as you are feeling fine/OK so far
