N&V Symptoms Management Checklist

Wear clothes that are loose and comfortable.

Relax before each cancer treatment.

Keep a record of when you feel nausea and why.

Consider alternative therapies such as acupuncture and aromatherapy.

Mind-body practices such as hypnosis, mindfulness, meditation, breathing exercises and yoga may help decrease your symptoms.
