I've been ill since 1993 and been on Social Security since 1994.

Like some of the others, I rely on Zofran for the nausea.

And I do well on a combination of Ultram and Prozac for the pain.

And I have had a series of EUS assisted celiac plexus nerve blocks, as well.

For the really insane pain, I've been on Demerol and Morphine, drugs.

What a way to " live " life.

Zofran (ondansetron hydrochloride) in pill form is a medication that is

primarily prescribed to chemotherapy patients for

short-tern use during their treatments.

It's also used in recovery rooms in IV form to control post surgical nausea,

again a short-term usage.

As of a few years ago, there were no long-term studies.

I don't know it that has changed.

I've been on it for years with no ill effects. It's allowed me to maintain

brain function because, unlike Compazine and other standard antiemetics, it

does not cause drowsiness.

It is very costly and difficult to get approved by many health insurance

companies.

But, as far as I'm concerned, well worth the battle.
