Starting Xeloda and would appreciate any insight and shared experiences / success stories please :-)

I'm sorry I'm not much use to you in responding to your questions or emotions, and like you I've never posted before, but your post gives me a lot of hope and encouragement and I hope that makes you feel a tiny bit better. I was diagnosed 9 months ago de novo metastatic. It's taking a lot to get my head around what that means for the future and how to plan and live my life. Hearing that you're 3 years down the track and show such strength and grace is an inspiration. I wish you all the best with the new drug and bugger all side effects! Your son should be very proud of you. kate (the bear's best friend)
