Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Hi, all, Has anyone treated successfully for nausea/vomiting due to chemotherapy, please? Have a new patient (just began treating her yesterday) dx with breast cancer Nov 03 and is now taking daily doses of oral chemo and injections 1x week. She has 8 more tx to finish up. The injections are the problem and have lately been making her n/v worse. Using the usual n/v points have used in pregnancy n/v, including index and ring finger points. Appreciate any information as to what points to use or not. Thank you, Pam Price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 I think would help you also point to balance and rise energy in the central part of the body. that is point on stomach meridian ST 36. I had same case year ago and she ask alone to press this point, after I use ones this point to try helpinh her against n/v. She reported that she feel much better and when I add also point LI 4 she felt even more positiv effect about her problem.I teach her how to make avto- accupresure at home and after mounth she was without n/v and still 2 mounth on chemotherapy. She also change her diet and became a macrobiotic and she is much stronger to faith against her problem. Now we are regulary on moxa and we are working on du-14 ti increase her immune sistem. How old is her and what is the stage of her breast cancer?

Thank you, Pam > Price As well as any Tx that you give, I would suggest that the woman but a TENS with 2 sockets (4 pads), such as the model E2 from Mayfair medical [Hong Kong]. I would recommend AP on the day before and after the weekly injections, and self-administered TENS twice/day for 20 minutes, rotating between the following points: LI01 or ST36 LU09 or SP06 LV03 or LI04 BL20 or BL21 PC06 or CV12 Also, Chinese herbs are powerful to counter chemo adverse effects. Discuss this with an expert on CHM.
