Nausea Day 4 of VDT-PACE August 27 2011

I've been pretty nauseated all day today. Haven't really wanted to eat or drink, but have made myself do both. I didn't do the treadmill today, but I did walk in the hallway twice -  up and down, up and down.
I asked for a Zofran anti-nausea pill this afternoon (I had one at 9 AM) and found that the order was for every 12 hours, so I asked Nurse Jamie to try to get it sooner. She was able to reschedule it and after I got another Zofran at around 4 PM, I was feeling a lot less nauseated. I ate a 1/2 of baked potato for dinner. This nausea is probably going to be an ongoing thing even after they stop the chemotherapty tonight at 10 or 10:15 PM.

The nurse printed out a copy of neutropenic (when your white blood cell count is low) diet rules and I read through all of the pages - more later on that.
