DOES IT HAVE TO Severe Vomitting & Lose Bowel

Is there any chance whatsoever that at end of treatment you really just start to feel better and not go through what was outlined previously. Please give me one example for hope. I am done on Friday.

A year and a half POST TX (add a hysterectomy which gave me chipped pelvic bone --- and a divorce in the mix) Diagnosis of Neuropathy and Fibromyalgia and I'm starting to FINALLY feel better --- but it has taken a LONG time.

I had a VERY BAD reaction to TX --- massive SX...

So --- if I can recover - so can you!!!!!

And YES --- for MOST of us... THERE is a rainbow at the end of the tunnel -- the tunnel is just sometimes LONGER than we are expecting.

Hugs!

There is no reason therefore to think you will have those exact symptons, in fact this is the first time I heard of someone with severe vomitting post treatment. That said, you may have your own set of symptons post treatment, or you may not. It's a very individual thing. Just keep in mind that it can take a little time for the drugs to leave your system after you stop taking them.

What was "outlined previously" was a person experiencing symptons of severe vomitting and loose bowels DURING treatment who continued having the same symptons six days post treatment.

There is hope!!  At the end of my first 6 month TX I just felt better and better each week and I felt better than I had pre tx despite being a non-responder!  After 3 months post EOT I was feeling fantastic!  I'm glad I have that previous experience because every time I feel I can't go on feeling this way on my 2nd tx I remember that once I stop the drugs it will be OK. Everyone is different so please don't worry!!
