  1. My husband has been undergoing treatment with chemo for 16 months now - I always heard that there was so much nausea with chemo. My husband has had very little nausea - the nurses give him some anti-nausea solution in his port prior to the chemo and that really seems to help. the only thing he has had a problem with is his red cell count gets really low and he is very tired all of the time, probably because of his low red count. Anyway, you are very lucky that you caught it early. I'm sure he is going to be just fine.
  2. My husband is 53 and has had small cell lung cancer for 16 months and is now stage 4. The cancer metastasized to his brain, but was treated with radiation and the brain is clear now. Currently undergoing treatment with Alimta, after trying all other types of chemo. Does anyone have any experience with Alimta as a lung cancer treatment? He is on his 4th round. He is extremely tired all of the time, and coughs alot. I was wondering if this is normal - he takes the treatment every 3rd week, and I was expecting him to start feeling better towards the end of the 3rd week. Instead, he seems to feel just as bad as when he first gets the treatment.
