Hi Wendy55. Glad you've found something that works for your feet too. Yes, I have problems with my hands too, but I've coped, like you. I have cleaners, and a dishwasher. I do gardening, but only in two pairs of gloves -- cotton ones inside industrial ones -- and not too often. Indeed, I avoid most things with my hands so I can have them working to do some handicrafts. And even then I have to be conservative as my finger tips and nail beds get very tender; some cracking but not as bad as my feet. I had liver spots too but mine have all cleared with Xeloda, which is fantastic. (I'd had an initial breast lump -- surgery, radio and chemo -- then a local recurrence and mastectomy, then lung -- more chemo -- then liver and Xeloda. It has been almost twenty years!) I find Xeloda tiring -- some days I don't do anything at all -- and unpredictable in that I don't know when I will feel well or will have a 'bed' day. But while ever it works to keep my cancer at bay I'm a fan! How do you find the day-to-day?
