Hi everyone. Continue with an update on myself. Started the chemo medications Capecitabine and I am currently on 7 tablets (4 in the morning and 3 at night), I started with the small dose and eventually increased to 7 tablets a day. Now I am experiencing the side effects of the hand and feet. Currently my hands are raw red and I try to moisturise it every day and the same as the feet, however my feet is now starting to peel and I am experiencing difficulty with walking. I have been using voltaren gel underneath my feet as per my nurse practitioner's advice.
I have 8 cycles of this medication which will finish in February. I was wondering if there is any advice from anyone who has been on this tablet and who had this side effects.
I would appreciate any recommendations as to how to handle these side effects.
Thank you in advance.
