Oral Chemo
Anyone been on Oral Chemo?
I have been on it for 2 days, and would really like to talk to someone who has been or currently on Oral Chemo?
Any advice would be much appreciated. x

Thanks for replying.
I am delighted to hear that you have only had a minor case of 'foot & hand syndrome' and that it is working for you :)
I have been on Xeloda for just under a week now. My dose is 3 x 500mg in the morning and 3x500mg in the afternoon. I have also had very minimal side effects, the first couple of days I felt a slight case of nausea - but seems to have gone now. And the last couple of days been feeling tired/fatigue - so I have a little 'nanna' nap. :) I wasnt eating much but that has also changed, starting to eat more and more now :)
I know this might seem silly, but I cannot help think, if i dont have most of these sides effects is the medication working? I can only home they working as I really really want my wedding to go ahead in March :) I tried on my dress this weekend and I had the biggest smile on my face, just truly made me feel happy!
I would love to stay in touch, so please let me know if you have any other advice or just want to chat.
Best of luck to you, and everyone else out there
