Hi everyone! I am in a bit of a rough spot at the moment and I am hoping for some help. I am currently being treated for a bladder tumour and the treatment I am taking is called cisplatin. I am three days into my treatment and I am constantly vomiting. Is there anything that I could do about that? Do you have any thoughts, advice, or just support?

Sorry that you are having such a hard time! There are things that you could try to make the vomiting less, such as eating plenty of fresh vegetables and ginger in any form (fresh, dried, sugared). But unfortunately, vomiting is something that everyone undergoing chemotherapy has to go through. It will end with your treatment. So hang on in there!

It is expected that chemotherpeutic drug affects vomiting center in the brain. Anti-emetic drugs are usually prescribed. Additionally, fluid and electrolyte replacement are of main concercerns.
