Cooking for a family while nauseated

Similar here, and mine turned out to be a completely unrelated deficiency picked up on bloods.

I asked my nurse the same question and she said something I have repeated ever since: that the aim is to keep you on treatment, not to get you up the schedule.

Gently disagreeing with the reply above, or rather adding the other half of it.

Two things that helped me, neither of them clever: small amounts more often, and drinking a lot more than felt necessary.

I would take that to a clinician rather than to us, and I would do it this week. Not because it is definitely serious — because it is the sort of thing that is much easier to rule out than to worry about.

Yes. All of this. I had the same in my third month and I remember thinking there was something specifically wrong with me, which there was not.

What the reply above described happened to me too, in a slightly different order.

Mine lasted about seven weeks and then lifted over a few days. I cannot tell you why. I can tell you it lifted.

I keep a two-line diary and it is the only reason I could answer this question about myself. Worth starting even now.

Different experience here, for balance. Mine did not improve and in the end I stopped, and that was the right call for me. Both outcomes exist.

The phrase that unlocked my appointment was asking what specifically she wanted me to watch for. It moved us from reassurance to a plan in about thirty seconds.

Can I gently push back on one thing? Not the substance, just the framing — you have written twice that you should be coping better. Who told you that?

My pharmacist was more use than anyone. Ten minutes at the counter, no appointment, no charge.

I am about four months behind you and I have been dreading exactly this, so thank you for writing it down before I got there.

Yes to the burping. It is real, it is unbeautiful, and it does settle.

the reply above said something I want to sit with for a second.

For what it is worth, the trial data on this is thinner than the confidence of the internet would suggest. Worth knowing when you read the posts.

What helped was lowering my own expectations of the week rather than trying to hold the week together.

I have been in this circle a year and this question comes round every few months. It is not a silly question. It is the question.
