    It’s nice to see there are other people out there in the “young” category. My son Trevor is 25 and going through the whole process. Tomorrow is more chemo, which puts him out for quite a while. Loss of appetite and strength are the main problems. Keeping on the TPN of the immediate future, which is a huge inconvenience. Would love to hear news from the younger ones out there of any suggestions. We’re open to all feedback.

    Many thanks.

    Thank you all for your support, information, and kind words. We will keep you posted. Trevor is currently dealing with gastrointestinal issues, causing poor appetite. He is trying to eat and drink more slowly, which seems to help.
    Fatigue level is high and therefore taking it easy. Is anyone having issues with indigestion and heartburn on the 5FU treatment? Anything new you know about?
    Thanks very much.

    Thanks for the information. Did your wife lose weight after the operation?

    Reglan was prescribed because like your wife is experiencing delayed gastric emptying. This has caused him to lose weight. Reglan crosses the blood brain barrier and that is why he’s experiencing all these side effects. Does donperidon cause the same effects?
