Hi There
After going through your query I understand your concern about your husband.
I would like to tell you that nausea , diarrhea and vomiting are common side effects of anti-neoplastic agents and you are already taking medication for that. You can increase the dose of antiemetics and antidiarrheal drugs consulting your physician personally and continue with further evalution for proper treatment.
Hope to have been helpful.
Kind Regards
Dr. Navneet Bansal
