Is Vomiting And Hiccups Common After Chemo?

My friend has his first chemo and was very sick, he is unwilling to talk to any social worker and just sit at home. He vomits even after 10 days after his chemo, and hiccups nonstop sometimes and that affected his sleep as well. I am so worry he could not be able to make his chemo therapy.
He is diagnosis of panecas cancer and has spreaded to the liver. He is 49 years old.
Don't know what we can do to help?
