Thanks Arple
Yes I find I get a very dry mouth too. I am on 3 capecitabine in the morning and 3 at night for two weeks and then a week off. I wake up feeling pretty groggy and am also taking anti clotting pills after my infused chemo caused clotting and inflammation in my arms. It is great not having to go to hospital all the time for infusions.
I hope your husband's feel can be treated - I have pins and needles in my hands and feet which I expect is neuropathy.
Best wishes
