chemotherapy side effect question
i am getting vincristine and Dactinomycin and i got it on monday
usually i feel terrible (tired, lethargic, stomach ache, not hungry etc) until late friday or saturday. Will drinking more make it go away sooner or lessen the side effects?

told me drink lots water on vincristine + no caffiene so drug can leave you fast

think not so much better for drinking water but worse without!

I took vincrstine too for lymphoma. One of the side effects to vincritine is tincking in your feet and hands. I did not take caffine either but they never told me why. Just said not to take during chemo thought it might cause it not to work so I was scared to drink it.lol The side effect to chemo effect every one different. I would say take a nausea pill would help lessen the side effects. I would soak in the tub to relax and that helped me
