| Add Aloxi review Six hours after receiving Aloxi injection, experienced horrible headache that near migraine level. I have had a couple of migraines in my life but not a chronic problem. Had to use ice pack alternatively with heat to get relief and my pain pills did nothing (percoset) for relief. 48 hours after dosing, was given Fioriset to help control pain. Didn't have nausea from the chemo but did from the migraine. Dr. will try something different next infusion. Had a slight but annoying headache for the entire 24 hrs that this drug lasted in me. No nausea or vomiting but i will stick with other anti- emetics next chemo round. | Add Kytril review I finished my second treatment and i don't know what I would do without it> I was diagnosed with Rectal cancer in October/2006. When i was going through my Chemo treatments i was very nauseated and i also had vomiting, My Doctor gave me this KYTRIL and WOW!!! It's an awesome drug for patients going through Chemotherapy. | |||
