    Hi Victor, I sympathise with your wife because I too suffered enormously from nausea and loss of appetite after I received chemotherapy. I listened to all the general advice about little and often, ginger tea, ginger biscuits, etc etc but nothing really helped. I couldn’t face putting even the smallest piece of food in my mouth and would go all day until about 6 o’clock without eating until I forced myself to have something. Needless to say I lost a huge amount of weight. This went on for months until I was referred to an amazing doctor at our local hospice. Over a period of months he prescribed several different medications until we found the one that eased my symptoms and helped to increase my appetite. From time to time I still feel a bit nauseous but nothing like before. At last I can enjoy a meal with my family and can face cooking again.

    Good luck with finding the solution for you.

    Kind regards
    Sue Emmerson
