I started Epirubicin last week and I've been having such irritating burps that I made my husband pick up a monster jar of Ultra Strength Tums on his way home tonight. All I could describe these burps as was that they are NOT the satisfying big belches that I really enjoy :) These are disgusting and uncomfortable and make me feel kind of sick. After reading the back of the Tums bottle I've found the perfect description: SOUR STOMACH. They are not like a VURP (bit of vomit with a burp!) but are just as irritating :) I'll be talking with my oncologist but in the meantime Tums will be my best friend!Lisahttp://lisarendall.comnoreply@blogger.com
