I've been where you are with the nausea thing and a mom with cancer. So here is a bit of info that might help.
Zofran (Ondansetron) (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/uspdi/202424.html) works much better for cancer patients than Reglan (metoclopramide) (http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/uspdi/202364.html) in my experience. But alternating the 2 is somewhat successful since they work in different ways.

From the article found here. (http://www.nida.nih.gov/Infofacts/marijuana.html)
Research clearly demonstrates that marijuana has the potential to cause problems in daily life or make a person's existing problems worse.Depression, anxiety, and personality disturbanceshave been associated with chronic marijuana use. Because marijuana compromises the ability to learn and remember information, the more a person uses marijuana the more he or she is likely to fall behind in accumulating intellectual, job, or social skills. Moreover, research has shown that marijuana’s adverse impact on memory and learning can last for days or weeks after the acute effects of the drug wear off.

If you use, then couldn't this have an affect on your cymbalta not working? Also please be careful with pre-employment drug screening. If found in your system it will be reported to the nursing governing board and could hurt you when applying for your license. I've watched many a nurse lose their license or be put on probation related to drug use. I have a co-worker right now that is on 2 year probation and mandatory AA classes and drug screens because of marijuana.

I agree that the marijuana brewed in a tea may help your mother's nausea as much as the prescribed drugs. But if she is having depresson issues (as most cancer fighters do) please be aware it may increase her depression as well.
