$9.99Buy NowThese compact emesis bags were the most essential thing I needed (and used) during radiation and chemo! I always kept one in my bag, in my car, and much of the time, in my hand!
I can't tell you how many times this kept me from throwing up in an Uber or friend's car while traveling to or from the cancer center, or what a relief it was to have one of these on my bedside table for those times you need one and there is no time to get up and run to the bathroom! Trust me, these are essential while going through chemo and radiation.
