As I wrote earlier, Simon has not felt so well today-- less appetite, though he ate some, much more tired, less purry. Then tonight he threw up everything he ate, about 2 hours later. it is the first time he has thrown up his food since getting cancer. I looked up CCNU online and one thing said it can cause vomiting and the other said it does not. The vet tech who administered it said it doesn't. Someone on the lymphoma list serv said her cat got some nausea about 2 weeks afterwards. Simon just got it two days ago. I am starting to regret doing the chemo, though of course this could be the cancer rather than the chemo. I would like to give him another dexamethasone shot, which is what rescued him last weekend, but do not have anymoe and tomorrow is Sunday and I really do not want to bring him to the emergency vet. After throwing up he hyperventilated for a while and I thought he was dying, because it was so extreme and looked like end stage respiratory distress, but he caught his breath after a minute or two, and then a few minutes later purred when I pet him and climbed into his cat bed. I had given him doxicycline this morning, with food, but am stopping it tonight because it can make his nausea worse. I had given him Pepcid twice today, for the first time in a week, but no reglan. I may give reglan in the morning but am not sure-- he was doing so well without it, but that was before the CCNU.
Any thoughts, or prayers, would be appreciated. Thanks, Michelle
