Help, my friend with cancer can't keep food down for a week after chemo.

Will that keep her from throwing up? As soon as she eats or drinks something, it hits her stomach,it's back up again (I was just there today and I'm not kidding or exaggerating). I can try that. I'm willing to buy anything to help her.

That is appropriate, unless she has pollen allergies, then it will make it worse, from what I have seen. I also think that honey is good, in tea or on its own.

She needs to call And talk to these people. Dr. Richard And Cindy Becker. They are on a show called Your Health on cable. They talk about people in these situations all the time. The website is: http://www.bioinnovations.net/home.asp and you could call them to order their books i would recommend which are: Health and Nutrition Secrets by Russell Blaylock, M.D.,Beating Cancer With Nutrition by Dr. Patrick Quillin and Foundations For Healing by Dr. Richard Becker. She needs to be giving herself heavy duty nutrients right now but in a soothing way. The chemo is killing any nutrients she has going in. The jelly has heavy duty B-vitamins in it which she needs. Like high doses of Vitamin 12 for instance. Also need to have her start using the Aloha Noni Juice, and the rice blend might be good for her. Flaxseed oil too which kills cancer cells. there is another one but I can't remember what it is called. All these things are chuck full of nutrients but the two latter books i mentioned would be a great way to start.

When I had gallbladder problems, I had the same thing with sausage. I can't believe onion bagels and cheese whiz, wow!

Has she had her gallbladder checked? Smell of sausage cooking kills you when you have that. Couldn't even drive by places that cooked with fat.

Our friend has a shunt and the injection is made directly into the shunt. She has liver cancer. Went from her kidney to her liver. She looks great and there is no way anyone can tell she's sick. Just some weight loss. Hope your friends gets things under control and feels better soon.

I hope your friend continues to feel great. I hope my friend feels better soon, too. Thanks.

Yeah, I've never seen anyone go through so much for a week after. She only has chemo once a month. I think she did go back once and say something. I'll have to talk to her. Yeah, lots of chemos are actually poison. Wouldn't want chemo unless they could inject it into the tumor. Kill that thing, not me.

Thank you, I think we're going to need a lot of prayers for this one. They get rid of one cancer and another one pops up. Depends on the ginger to honey ratio or how it's done. Some ginger teas are soothing, but some are caustic to the stomach. I generally use the ginger tea to clear my sinuses and it's fantastic for the flu! I'll add it to the list. I don't generally upchuck during the flu, during viral gastro-intestinal mess, I do. I'll have to try a gentler ginger/honey tea, maybe one with camomille and see how that works out. Maybe that would work for her. She has sooo many teas, I wonder what she has tried during that one week per month.

Wish I could give more than one best response. You lived it and it worked for you. No better answer can be given. Your experience is your answer. I'm sorry you've had it so many times, but I'm glad you're still here. My Mom had it 5 times and she isn't. So 9 times is amazing and great that you are here. Thank you very much, I will pass the information along. It means more coming from someone who has had similar experiences, I assure you. Take care and thanks.

Every year, a lot of us have to sign petitions to keep herbs in our backyard like dandelions from being illegal to use as medicine. Dandelion root makes a good diuretic, just as good as the pill they give me, but they want to outlaw everything except pills.
