Suggest Treatment For Anaplastic Astrocytoma

hello,

I'm 34, I was diagnosed with annaplastic astrocytoma 1 year ago. I'm on Temodar - 350 mg on 4 week cycles. I just finished 9th cycle, and I don't know how I'm going to do the 10th - I gag when I smell the pills, and I get sick to my stomach just thinking about taking another pill. I'm not sure if that's psychological - I do hate the thought of putting all this junk in my body - but I know I don't have much choice and it will help me to live longer. Any idea how I can work on this? Initially, I was happy that the chemo would be in pill form, as I hate needles. Thank you for your feedback and for the work you do.
