Since I don't hold things(food) down very well, it (Xeloda) is coming up more than staying in my system. However, this may be my only hope for now, since IV chemo has become too risky for me to handle. I believe there may be some other factors that have come about, so I may not be able to give a proper analysis.

I have taken Xeloda for 15 months. Tumors in hip and neck have not grown and one lymph node in lung has remained the same size. I have hand and foot syndrome and had to take a brief rest to heal, but am very pleased with the results. Dr. is satisfied with the results also. It has allowed me to continue with my life without the horrible side effects of the previous two IV chemotherapy sessions.

Have been on Xeloda for 7 weeks; It is reducing the metastic symptoms but my hands, feet and face have turned very dark. Lotion helps with the dryness, but the darkening of the skin is scarry as I have always had a medium skin-color african american women....
