Xeloda -- foot care
Hi Xeloda users! This might not be news, but it was news to me so I thought I'd post it. I've been taking Xeloda for nearly five years, so have tried many potions and pastes on my feet to keep them ...
Hi ladies
love reading the experiences on Xeloda
I started feb 8 - 1500mg (3 tabs) BD - quite gruelling.... 2 wks on 1wk off, now just started third cycle....
BUT had a blood transfusion towards end of Cycle 2 - and still felt like 'death warmed up'
And then just to cap it all off - lovely as in not 'red' sunburnt feet towards end of cylce 2, so stopped half a day earlier for rest wk. Just started again on Thurs so 3rd day today. Had a lovely lunch out yesterday, but today utterly whacked :(
Oh the joys of ongoing treatment. But like you have heard it's relatively successful in some women so fingers crossed.
I was Dx in Feb 2016 de novo.
Regards, Elaine
