Well-I had my 3rd round of carboplatin and boy did I get queasy.
I haven’t tossed my biscuits, but I completely lost my appetite for a few days.
This was very upsetting to my pawparents. Mom over-reacted and I spent the day at my vet getting fluids. The heat didn’t help either. It took me 3 days to get my appetite back. In the meantime, I have been eating rice and chicken (hand fed of course). Not bad, tonight I had steak-much better and I ate all by myself. I am switching to a new chemo in a few weeks and I hope that I tolerate it better. Overall, I am enjoying life and having a great summer.
sampson, sorry to hear about the ‘fussy belly’, i got that a couple of times myself with chemo and it is no fun. glad you were able to recover with chicken and rice…and then steak – you are livin’ the life big man!!! glad to hear you are enjoying your summer!!

Oh, that darn queasiness and loss of appetite. Catie had that with each chemo treatment and I totally understand your mom’s concern.
Happy to hear you’re still able to enjoy your summer though.
