Oh bless you, completely empathise with you. Are you eating little and often? Pineapple is supposed to help but  must admit it tasted vile to me during chemotherapy...

peppermint tea is soothing....

have you tried other indigestion remedies? 

Hello and thanks for posting,

I am sorry to learn that you are having some difficult symptoms during treatment.

Do speak to your GP or hospital team about your heartburn/indigestion. A drug such as omeprazole (called a PPI) can be prescribed in higher doses than normal, for a short period to get control of severe over acidity. They will take a couple of weeks to work effectively. Steroid tablets can cause gastritis (stomach inflammation), which can lead to feelings of nausea (sickness). But taking a gut protectant such as omeprazole would help with this. You may also benefit from having some different anti-sickness medication prescribed too, as this can help with stomach motility (passing things through stomach). 

The NHS website is a good source of information,

www.nhs.uk/.../

We have information on anti sickness medication on this link,

Try and take snacks or small meals, and avoid eating about 4 hours before bedtime. Spicy foods, alcohol, caffeine or milk/diary can all increase stomach acid. 

I do hope that things improve for you soon,

Wishing you the best,

Vanda
