Hi Nancy – We started the cream yesterday afternoon. She only vomited once @ 2:30 am so I am hoping this works for her. She had a rough last couple days she was voimting every 2-3 hours. The nausea isn’t as bad as it was yesterday and now she is experiencing dizziness. I am praying this works for her we have tried so many other nausea medications and nothing has worked for her. This is such a horrible disease and it breaks my heart to see my Mom suffer like this. Thank you for the good thoughts, I appreciate them….
My Mom has had really rough 4 days. She has no appetite and is drinking very little fluids. She has constantly been vomiting bile for the last 4 days. Hospice just started the ABHR cream today. Has anyone tried this cream?? If so does it help with the vomiting and will she regain any of her appetite?? I hope some of you can help me with my question. Thank you!
Hi Gavin – My Mom had a pretty good day today. We will be taking her to the Dr today and I will be asking many questions about the meds. Thank you for thinking about us!! I will update later tonight on what the Dr says…
Hi Lainy – Thank you for the welcome! What a wonderful family this is….We already tried compazine and did not work for her. Hopefully, the doctor can figure out on another med to give her. The fentanyl patch has been mentioned to us for my mom. Glad to hear it works well for the pain. My mom is also at home under hospice care. Thank you very much for the warm welcome and your feedback. God Bless your husband! May you stay strong too….
Thanks Sunshine – I did read about Marinol maybe I will ask the doctor about it. Thanks for your feedback….One day at a time!
Hi Gavin – Yes all her nausea meds are taken orally. Maybe I should talk to the hospice nurse and doctor and see about the syringe driver. I appreciate your feedback and information on what you have gone through because when you can’t get answers from anyone its good know I can go to this site and their are people out there who are going or went through this same process. Thank you again for being on this site and giving me some direction… It still boggles my mind that the doctors have told us this is such a rare and uncommon cancer and not many people have it and the more research I do the more people I find that have this horrible disease….Thanks again Gavin!!
Hi Simon – God Bless your Wife. I am staying positive. I am the youngest of 6 children so my Mom has a wonderful support system and we been through this with her from the start. I have learned also to take one day at a time and cherish every moment. Thank you for sharing your wife’s story with me – I hope she continues to stay positive and keeps the faith….
Hi Marion – I had a feeling the vomiting could be relentless. The problem is my mom doesn’t want any kind of tubes or anything. She is on her 4th different medicine for nausea and vomiting and nothing is working and I am just assuming the cancer is just progressing fast just the like the doctor said it was. I guess the higher sedation might be the way to do – I will have to ask the doctor. She is just so weak and has changed so much from June – just so unfair. Thank you for your reply on my post…Hugs to you too!!!
Hi Gavin – She doesn’t eat much at all, but when she vomits its all bile and its like a faucet and can go on and on for hours. Right now for pain she is on diluated every 3 hours it does decrease the pain but its always there it never goes away. Thank you so much for replying to my posts – it means alot to me
