Kamoto Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Hi All. Winter has hit in Montana. But I’m experiencing something odd. I’m having morning dry heaves like I had post chemo. Since April of 2023 I’ve been fine, gaining weight enjoying the summer, then wham, it’s like I’m having chemo again. My daughter who is an RN says it’s likely PTSD. Anyone else have this ten months after the end of chemo? I have a scan in a few weeks, so I’ll tell Doc about this new issue, but wondering if others have psychosomatic remembrances of the toughest time in their lives. Hope everyone is well.

Kamoto Posted October 26, 2023 Author Share Posted October 26, 2023 I see that peritoneum tumors can also induce nausea. These are on the inside of stomach. I guess this could be my 1st symptom which could prompt oncologist to order the PET scan. He said no PET scan without a symptom. I also see that brain tumors can induce nausea. I’ve had a brain met,from the lung cancer, so who know if it’s come back. Let’s see what scans say in a few weeks and I’ll discuss with oncologist LouT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Galli Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Kamoto, I have many "psychosomatic remembrances of the toughest time" in my life, but when these rise to the level of actual symptoms, I get out of my head and into a doctor's office. You can do this! Stay the course. Tom BridgetO and LouT 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen_L Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 PTSD is a real thing with cancer survivors. And, I'm with Tom and Lou on this. Hang in, Kamoto. Stay warm. Karen LouT and Tom Galli 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
