Hi Desiree
I have been on Xeloda for 12 months now.
I think with any chemo drug you will get some side effects. My side effects are mainly tiredness & dry, soles of my feet & hands. My feet become a bit painful towards the end of each cycle but improve when each cycle finishes & I have a weeks break. I have found massaging my feet & hands with MooGoo cream from the health food shops the most helpful. The good news is that so far Xeloda has kept my cancer stable during the last 12 months that I have been on it. I had breast cancer 16 years ago now. It came back 2 years ago in my skull bones,neck, spine, ribs, & pelvis.
Wishing you all the best with your treatment. Wendy 67
